Good afternoon to everyone.
My apologies for the delay in starting. We needed to have a quorum and get all of the paperwork in order, which is now done.
Pursuant to the order of reference of Wednesday, November 22, the committee will now be resuming its study on Bill C-284. We have to go through a number of amendments clause by clause. Hopefully we can get through them expeditiously. If anyone has any questions, please let me know.
We will be starting with clause 1.
Mr. Lessard.
