Good morning, everybody.
We'll start the meeting immediately.
I call this meeting to order.
This is a resumption of meeting 137 of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs.
This is a reminder to witnesses and others that if you're not using your earpiece, please place it on the sticker in front of you in order to avoid harmful audio feedback that can jeopardize the health and well-being of our translators.
Colleagues, we are here to resume clause-by-clause on Bill C-65.
We do have a couple of witnesses back with us today.
From the Office of the Chief Electoral Officer, we welcome back Mr. Knight, the general counsel.
From the Privy Council Office, we have with us Candice Ramalho, senior policy adviser. Joining us virtually is Rachel Pereira, director, electoral and senatorial policy unit.
Mr. Blois, welcome to PROC. It's nice to see you here today.
Colleagues, with that, we are going to resume.
Mr. Cooper, the last time I checked my list, you maintained the floor, so I'm going to give you the floor, sir.
