Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), a study on the issues of new rules for boat stability, and in particular the matter of the fishery boat length requirements, I welcome our witnesses to the table. I know our members are chatting and trying to finish up, and maybe get a coffee vis-à-vis the last meeting, but we do have an agenda here so I'm going to move along.
First of all, welcome to our witnesses, Pierre Chevrier, Mario Desrape and Marcel Cormier. Welcome, gentlemen.
Since this is Monsieur Blais' riding, I will ask Monsieur Blais if he would like to make any words of introduction and we will go to our witnesses after that.
Monsieur Blais.
