Rodney Weston at the Fisheries and Oceans Committee

I call the meeting to order.

Thank you very much, everyone, for coming this morning. On behalf of the Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans, we really appreciate your attendance, Mr. Thompson and Mr. Thompson.

Before we begin I'll just go over a couple of items. We generally allow ten minutes for an oral presentation, and following that there are some timelines that the members have to adhere to for questioning.

Mr. Greg Thompson, you're going to go first, and Richard, you're going to follow. Mr. Thompson, I'll ask you to proceed at this time.

Thank you.
