Welcome back.
For our second panel, we have, from the Canadian Wildlife Federation, Mr. Nick Lapointe, senior conservation biologist, freshwater ecology. From the Mining Association of Canada, we have Pierre Gratton, president and chief executive officer, and Danielle Morrison, director, regulatory affairs.
Thank you for taking the time to appear today.
Each group will have up to five minutes for an opening statement.
I believe, Mr. Lapointe, that you will go first.
