We'll call our meeting to order. Welcome, everybody, to meeting 104 of the Standing Committee on Health. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we're going to study organ donation.
Mr. Webber has brought this to our attention several times. I think we agreed to do it quite a while ago. We're glad to get to it.
Today for witnesses, we have from B.C. Transplant by video conference, Leanne Appleton, provincial executive director; and Edward Ferre, provincial operations director. From Canadian Blood Services, we have Dr. Isra Levy, vice-president, medical affairs and innovation; and Amber Appleby, acting director, donation and transplantation. We also have Trillium Gift of Life Network, Ronnie Gavsie, president and chief executive officer.
Welcome, everyone.
We're going to ask each of you to make a 10-minute opening statement.
We'll start with our friends from B.C. Transplant.
