I call the meeting to order. We're a couple of minutes late, but close enough.
Before we begin with the presentations and the introduction of our witnesses, I have a housekeeping note. At 1 p.m., as most of you are aware, we will have a delegation from the Vietnamese parliament. Several parliamentarians will be here. We'll go in camera for an informal discussion. They will mainly have questions for all of you about the jobs you perform and how Parliament works here in Canada. Unfortunately, I will not be able to participate. I have a Liaison Committee meeting at the same time. Madam Ratansi has graciously agreed to take the chair, even though it's an informal meeting, to help direct the questions. I would encourage all of you who have no prior engagements to please stick around and meet our Vietnamese colleagues.
With that, I would like to welcome all of our witnesses here today.
By video conference from Saskatoon, we have Mr. Sean Willy of Des Nedhe Development.
Gitpo Storms Corporation is represented by Mr. Bernd Christmas. Welcome, sir.
From FoxWise Technologies Incorporated, we have Mr. Sam Damm. Thank you, Mr. Damm, for being here.
From K-Sports Marine Incorporated, we have Mr. John Derouard. Thank you, sir.
Susan Targett is here from Seven Generations Energy Ltd.
Welcome to all of you. As you probably know, you'll all be given approximately 10 minutes for opening statements. Following your statements, we will then go into a round of questions from all of our colleagues. We'll go as long as we can until we adjourn at 1 p.m.
With no further ado, I would like to ask Mr. Willy for his opening statement via video conference.
Mr. Willy, the floor is yours.
