Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are studying Canada's Arctic foreign policy.
I'd like to thank our witness for being here. We have P. Whitney Lackenbauer, associate professor and chair of the Department of History at St. Jerome's University.
Mr. Lackenbauer, welcome. It's great to have you here today. We look forward to hearing your testimony. We're going to give you 10 minutes to do that, and then we'll go back and forth across the room with questions.
Please introduce yourself and tell us a bit about yourself, and then we'll hear your testimony.
