Good. We'll begin now, and you have the first hour. Our witnesses are Mr. Alex Istifo, president, St. Maratken Community Society, and Helen Smith-McIntyre, chair of the refugee coalition and chair of Amnesty International.
Welcome. We generally begin with some opening comments, so either one of you can start. We generally allow around seven minutes for opening comments, and then we'll have our committee members interact and ask a few questions, if they have any.
Please go ahead.
