The Chair Liberal Karina Gould

I call this meeting to order.

Welcome to meeting number 20 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance.

I am delighted to welcome Minister Steve MacKinnon to finance committee. He's accompanied by two officials: Arun Thangaraj, deputy minister, and Vincent Robitaille, associate assistant deputy minister for programs.

Thank you so much for being with us.

Without further ado, Minister MacKinnon, we'll turn the floor over to you.

Thank you.
