I call the meeting to order.
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us this morning. We appreciate your making the effort to travel to Ottawa to have a discussion with the committee this morning.
I'm going to open the floor for opening comments. I believe, Mr. McCurdy, you're going to lead off. Ms. Inniss, you're going to follow, and Mr. Frenette, you're going to bring up the rear.
Monsieur Blais.
