The committee is back in session.
I would like to welcome the witnesses for the second hour and remind you of a couple of points.
For those who are appearing in the room, please make sure you have your headset on. That allows you to participate in the meeting in the language of your choice. If there is an interruption in translation, I will suspend while it is being corrected.
Please ensure your devices are on mute. Please, for the benefit of our translators, refrain from tapping on the boom of the mic.
In this hour I would like to welcome as witnesses Dr. Carolyn Whitzman, senior housing researcher at the University of Toronto's School of Cities; from the Canadian Housing and Renewal Association, Raymond Sullivan, executive director; and from Rental Housing Canada, Tony Irwin, president and chief executive officer.
We'll begin the five-minute open statements with Dr. Whitzman.
Welcome. You have the floor.
