Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
This is the 16th meeting of the Standing Committee on Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development.
On the agenda is our study, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), of northern territories economic development: barriers and solutions.
I want to welcome our witness this afternoon, Mr. Bill Eggertson.
Mr. Eggertson comes from the Canadian Association for Renewable Energies.
Members, we only have the one witness today. It was not through a lack of trying; you will know we usually try to have a full panel. This has been partly because our schedule has been somewhat irregular these last two weeks, with the completion of work on Bill C-3 and the study on the Aboriginal Healing Foundation.
We have our first hour today with Mr. Eggertson. At that point we'll go in camera for our second hour, when we'll be talking about the instructions for the report on AHF.
Mr. Bagnell, you have a point of order.
