We are back in session.
Welcome, witnesses, to part two of meeting number 35 of government operations and estimates—as I call it, the mighty OGGO.
We'll have several witnesses today. We're going to go from 12 to about 12:45. Then we're going to stay public, and we're going to discuss the schedule going forward.
We have witnesses today from the the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada. We have Jennifer Carr, president; and Eva Henshaw, vice-president. From the Public Service Alliance of Canada, we have Michele Girash, national political action officer; Liam McCarthy, director, negotiations and programs branch; and Howie West.
We're going to start with a five-minute opening from Mr. McCarthy.
We are short of time, so I ask that you do keep it close to five minutes or less than five minutes but not longer.
Thank you. Go ahead, Mr. McCarthy.
Then we will hear from Jennifer Carr.
