Is there any opposition?
Seeing none, we have approved that change.
I would now like to welcome our witnesses for the first panel.
We have, from DisinfoWatch, Mr. Marcus Kolga, director. From the Ukrainian Canadian Congress we have Ihor Michalchyshyn, executive director and CEO; and from Hermitage Capital Management we have William Browder, who is also head of the Global Magnitsky Justice Campaign.
Each of you will have five minutes for your opening remarks. The way that has worked well in the past to enforce this is to give you a 30-second warning in a very analogue fashion through this yellow card. When you see this come up, you have 30 seconds to wrap up your comments. That also goes for the question and answer period that follows.
Without further ado, I would now like to turn the floor over to Mr. Kolga for five minutes, for his opening remarks.
Mr. Kolga, the floor is yours. Please go ahead.
