Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First I would just like to sincerely apologize for my late arrival. I was actually 45 minutes early to the wrong place. I do want to assure you that I take my appearance here very seriously, and I'm extremely sorry for missing the opportunity to provide those opening remarks.
I am the regional director general for the Pacific region. I have responsibility for implementation of the programs in B.C. and in the Yukon. I'm more than happy to speak to the committee about any questions you have.
Thank you.
