Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First, let me acknowledge the witnesses who are attending the meeting in person.
Mrs. Potter, Mr. Breton, and Mr. Freedman, thank you for attending.
I also thank Mr. Staples, Mr. Darby, and Mr. Harvey, who are with us virtually.
We have a most interesting panel, with a rich content. I think a lot of your recommendations will be included in our report. I also believe that we will be able to join hands across party lines to pass the right measures.
I have to tell you that Mr. Chambers gave me the famous flying pig socks. I think we all have a pair now, and anything is possible with these socks.
