As we unfortunately have a short time, I'll be stricter with the clock; I will make sure we finish right at 5:30 so we can go to the votes.
We have the pleasure of welcoming Patricia Fortier, a former Canadian diplomat, who was also the Assistant Deputy Minister of the Consular, Security and Emergency Management Branch, and Daniel Livermore, who was the Director General of the Security and Intelligence Bureau at the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade from 2002 to 2006, after a long and distinguished career in policy planning.
Ms. Fortier, Mr. Livermore, the floor is yours for your brief presentation.
