We're now starting a second meeting.
I welcome everyone to the 71st meeting of the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration.
We welcome all of our witnesses and thank you for coming on relatively short notice to this special meeting.
For the first hour of the meeting, Mr. McKay will be the chair; then we'll turn it over to me. If, however, anything goes on in the meeting that is a procedural issue, if it arises from one of the members of the public safety committee, John McKay will be the chair of that part; and if any procedural issue comes from one of the members of the immigration committee, it will be my responsibility.
We'll go over to John.
