Thank you very much. I also want to thank our friends from the Carter Center, Ms. Johnson and Ms. van den Bergh.
Ms. Johnson and Ms. van den Berg, we're going to start the questions. We're going to have a couple of rounds of questions. The first round will be seven minutes, and each party will have a chance to ask some questions and get some answers.
I'm going to ask the members here, since we're dealing with a teleconference, if they are addressing a question to either Ms. Johnson or Ms. van den Bergh to please state that so they know who the question is for. They are not able to see our facial expressions here. Also, I would ask that when the ladies from the Carter Center respond, they identify themselves so that we can make sure we have a record of that.
I'm going to start with Mr. Pearson, who is part of the Liberal Party.
Sir, the floor is yours. You have seven minutes.
