Order, please.
Welcome, everyone, to the 26th meeting of the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates. We are continuing our study on the government's open data practices.
Today, we are fortunate to be welcoming representatives from various Government of Canada departments and institutions. They will give brief presentations to explain how they manage open data practices and the needs of users. I won't introduce them all now, but rather will introduce them one by one as I give them the floor.
We will begin with the representatives from Statistics Canada, Bill Joyce, director of the Operations Branch, who is accompanied by Yves Éland.
Without further ado, I give them the floor for five to 10 minutes, depending on what they have to say this morning.
