Good afternoon, everyone. We are now starting the 34th meeting of the Standing Committee on Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), today we are looking at the Nutrition North Canada situation.
I would like to welcome Ms. Leona Aglukkaq, Minister of Health.
Welcome to our discussion and panel this afternoon as we continue our consideration of this important topic on Nutrition North Canada.
I should point out that we will be hearing from officials a little later on.
Members, you will know that today we are meeting for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. We'll be adjourning at 5 p.m. for another informal meeting with parliamentarians representing the Arctic region. We'll try to wrap up as best we can just shortly before 5 o'clock, so that we can do the switchover and have as much time as we can with our guests.
Without any further hesitation, let's go directly to the minister.
Minister, welcome. Go ahead with your presentation.
