The Chair Conservative Dean Allison

Pursuant to Standing Order 81(4), we're going to be looking at the main estimates today.

I'd like to welcome everybody. We have the minister here to answer questions. I know that Minister Solberg will have some opening statements.

The first round will be seven minutes, followed by a second round of five minutes.

I believe, Minister, you're here for the full two hours. I know the committee is very excited about the prospect of having you for two hours. I don't think there's anything else we need to cover at this point in time, so Minister, please start with your opening remarks.
