Thank you.
I'd like to thank the clerk for that seamless election.
To the members of the opposition, I'm just as surprised as you are that I'm here. Thank you so much, everyone.
Before we continue, I would like to ask all in-person participants to consult the guidelines written on the cards on the table. These measures are in place to help prevent audio feedback incidents and to protect the health and safety of all participants, including the interpreters.
You will also notice a QR code on the card, which links to a short awareness video.
If the committee is in agreement, I'd like to invite the clerk to proceed with the election of the vice-chairs.
