I call the meeting to order.
I'd like to thank Mr. Dakins and Mr. Thompson for joining us here today. As you're well aware, we're discussing Bill C-555.
Mr. Dakins, we're certainly very anxious to hear your presentation this morning.
I'm sure the clerk has already informed you that we generally allow about 10 minutes for presentations, which are followed by questions and answers. If I cut you off at any time through the question and answer period, please forgive me. Members are constrained by certain time limits and in the interest of fairness, we try to keep as close to those timeframes as possible.
Whenever you're ready, Mr. Dakins, please proceed.
