I call this meeting back to order.
I'd like to thank our guests for joining us here today and taking the time out of your busy schedules to meet with the committee. No doubt you're aware that we're studying recreational fisheries in Canada and that we certainly look forward to your comments. I'm assuming that the clerk has advised you that we allow about 10 minutes for presentations, remarks, and comments from an organization and then we move into committee members' questions and answers. On that I'd ask you try to keep your responses as concise as possible as members are constrained by time limits.
On that note, Mr. Hambrook, I believe that you're going to speak first on behalf of the Miramichi Salmon Association, and that you, Mr. LeBlanc, are going to follow Mr. Hambrook on behalf of the Restigouche River Watershed Management Council. Is that correct? Can you hear me all right?
