Our meeting will now come to order.
I want to welcome all of you here today, as we continue our study on the loss of Canadian citizenship for the years 1947, 1977, and 2007.
We have two panels that we will hear from today. Our first panel will go from 11 to 12, and the second panel will go from 12 to 1.
I want to welcome our first panel. Appearing as individuals are Wendy Adams, Charles Bosdet, William Smith, and Christopher Veeman. And from the Canadian War Brides, we have Melynda Jarratt, historian.
I want to welcome you here today. I think you're familiar with how the committee operates, so I'll pass it over to you to begin your opening statements. I think Mr. Chapman will be introducing each of you.
Mr. Chapman, do you want to begin, please?
