Dean Allison at the Foreign Affairs and International Development Committee

I want to welcome our two guests for our second hour.

We have Lauchlan Munro, director of the School of International Development and Global Studies, University of Ottawa. Welcome, sir. We're glad to have you here.

We also have Jim Cornelius, the executive director of the Canadian Foodgrains Bank. Welcome, sir, to you as well.

Professor Munro, why don't we get started with your testimony, and then we'll go to Mr. Cornelius. Then we'll go around the room, back and forth, for questions.

You have 10 minutes, sir. I'll turn the floor over to you.
