I call this meeting back to order.
Welcome back, everybody. We have our second panel of witnesses with us today. All of our witnesses for the second panel are virtual.
From the Office of the Auditor General of Canada, Karen Hogan is with us.
Thank you, Ms. Hogan, for being able, in really short order, to make it here to our committee. We appreciate that.
She is accompanied by Philippe Le Goff, principal.
Representing the Canadian Labour Congress, we have Bea Bruske. She is the president.
Bea, I believe, is having some technical difficulties with her sound, so we will see if that works or not. If it doesn't work for the interpreters, it may not be possible to have Bea today.
No strangers to our committee are representatives of the Canada Revenue Agency. We heard from them just a couple of meetings ago. We have Frank Vermaeten, assistant commissioner of the assessment, benefit and service branch; Marc Lemieux, assistant commissioner, collections and verification branch; Cathy Hawara, assistant commissioner, compliance programs branch; and Janique Caron, chief financial officer and assistant commissioner, finance and administration branch.
Each of the organizations will have a five-minute opening statement.
We will start with the Auditor General, Ms. Hogan, for five minutes.
