I'll call the meeting to order.
We welcome once again the Minister of Public Works and Government Services, Mr. Fortier. This is not his first appearance before this committee.
Mr. Fortier, you are familiar with the committee's proceedings. You have a few minutes to make your presentation, and we will then move on to questions.
We have new members sitting on this committee. Perhaps they do not know the persons who are with you you today. If you wish, you may introduce them.
