We will come to order, please.
I want to welcome our second panel of witnesses to our committee hearing today: from the Royal Canadian Legion, Mr. Pierre Allard, director of the service bureau, Dominion Command, and Mr. Earl Kish, Dominion Vice-President; and June Francis, professor at Simon Fraser University. Thank you.
I think you know the drill we use here. You will make some opening comments and we will go to our committee for some comments to you.
Oh, I'm sorry, I left out another individual: Marian Vermeersch, Lost Canadians. I'm sorry about that. Accept my apology.
Who is going first? Okay, ladies first, so whichever lady wishes to proceed first, please feel free.
