I'll call this meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number 14 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted on January 20, 2022, the committee is resuming its study of marine cargo container spills.
I'm not going to go through everything about the hybrid format, everything going through the chair, and social distancing. We've heard that often enough. I'd also like to remind all participants that taking screenshots or photos of your screen is not permitted.
I would now like to welcome witnesses.
For the first panel today, we have, from the Nanaimo Port Authority, Captain Singh, vice-president, marine operations and harbour master. From the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority, we have Captain Madiwal, director, marine operations and harbour master.
I'd like to welcome back Madam Gaudreau to committee today, and also Mr. Paul-Hus. I pronounced that right, I hope. Welcome back, sir. It's good to have you here.
We'll now begin with opening remarks from Captain Singh for five minutes or less.
Go ahead, please.
