Thank you, Mr. Cloutier.
Before we begin with the rounds of questions, I want to make sure that I haven't improperly spoken for the committee. I indicated at the outset that we would be sitting until 7:14. What I should have said is we have the support of the fine folks at the House of Commons for the full two hours, if it is the will of the committee to sit for the full two hours.
Oh, I'm back on Atlantic time, and I'm in Ottawa.
Do we have the support of the committee to sit until 6:15?
There is consent in the room and on the screen. Excellent.
We will now begin with rounds of questions, starting with the Conservatives.
We have Dr. Ellis for six minutes.
