Good morning, everyone. Thank you for being here. We still have one member who hasn't arrived, Rodger Cuzner, but he will probably be here shortly.
I'd like to thank the witnesses that have come here today on relatively short notice.
We're dealing with clauses 161 to 166 of Bill C-60, primarily dealing with changes to the temporary foreign worker program.
We are happy to have with us today Joyce Reynolds, the executive vice-president of government affairs with the Canadian Restaurant and Foodservices Association. It's good to see you here today for sure.
A special welcome to Dan Davidson from the Red Barn in Moosomin, Saskatchewan, a small business. We certainly want to hear from you today. Thank you for coming.
From the Air Canada Pilots Association we have Captain Craig Blandford, president. We're happy to see you here—I see you have others as well—and to hear from you with respect to this legislation.
The process is that each of you has about five to seven minutes to present. Then we'll open it up to questions from each of the parties. We'll alternate party to party. You're the first panel for the first hour. Then we'll suspend briefly to allow our second panel to attend.
You'll be with us from now until about 12 o'clock. We'll start with Ms. Reynolds.
