Good morning, everybody. I hope you have had a good week.
Welcome to meeting number 121 of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs.
Colleagues, we are continuing our study on the question of privilege related to cyber-attacks targeting members of Parliament.
I have just a friendly reminder, as always, as we begin. Please ensure that your audio devices are placed securely on the stickers to either side of you in order to protect the health and well-being of our interpreters, who do such important work for us.
Colleagues, we are joined by a number of our parliamentary colleagues today. The format remains the same.
With us today, we have James Bezan, the member of Parliament for Selkirk—Interlake—Eastman; Garnett Genuis, the member of Parliament for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan; and the Honourable John McKay, the member of Parliament for Scarborough—Guildwood.
Each witness will be given the opportunity to speak for up to five minutes, and then we will proceed to our regular opening round.
Gentlemen, I'm not sure who wants to begin. I'm not sure if you've had a conversation amongst yourselves, but do we have a volunteer in terms of who would like to go first? It's Mr. Genuis. Okay.
Mr. Genuis, with that, the floor is yours for up to five minutes for your opening remarks.
