First, I want to thank you for having me at the committee. I was particularly heartened by the warm invitation to be here from my friend from Willowdale, and I am excited to be here.
Given that we're starting 10 minutes late and going until 12 o'clock, I'm prepared to step aside with my statement and go right into 15 minutes of questions, if the committee agrees, or we can go until 12:10, and I can go ahead with my speech. I'm in your hands, Mr. Chair.
