Members, we now have an opportunity to hear from the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. Testifying we have Milos Barutciski, vice-chair of the international affairs committee, and Brian Zeiler-Kligman, international policy analyst.
Recently the Honourable Perrin Beatty, president and CEO of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, extended to me the opportunity to send a congratulatory message to Donald Stewart, president and CEO of Sun Life Financial on the occasion of his being honoured as the 2007 recipient of the Canadian International Executive of the Year Award. So the committee may want to take a look at the message that was forwarded.
We certainly do appreciate the work of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, and we look forward to hearing from them.
To our two guests today, we look forward to hearing what you have to say in our deliberations on Bill C-9. I know that some of you were here for the testimony we heard earlier.
Welcome here. The time is yours.
