The Chair Conservative Dean Allison

Thank you, Minister.

I thought I should maybe introduce the officials with you. I didn't do that at the beginning, and I apologize for that.

Hélène Gosselin, deputy minister of labour, welcome, and thank you for being here today.

We also have Janice Charette, deputy minister of HRSDC. Thank you, and welcome back again. I know most of you have been here before.

Also with us is Karen Kinsley, president of the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Thank you for being here.

And last but not least, we have Linda Lizotte-MacPherson, senior associate deputy minister and chief operating officer, Service Canada.

Thank you to the officials for being here today, and welcome back.

We're going to start with our first round over here on the opposition side.

Mr. Savage, I know you are going to split your time, so we'll give you four minutes and then let you know when those are up, so you can split your time. The floor is yours.
