I would like to call this meeting to order. Pursuant to the order of reference adopted by the House on October 25 and to the motion adopted by this committee on November 23, the committee will now resume its study on Bill C-257.
Our witnesses will have seven minutes to make their presentations. There will be two rounds of questioning, one round of seven minutes and a second one of five minutes. I will do my best to keep my eye on the clock, although when you have MPs asking questions, anything can happen. We try to keep everyone within the timeframe.
I also want to remind everybody that all questions should be put through me, the chair. We'll start with Mr. Roy.
