Colleagues, I call the meeting back to order.
This next hour of the meeting is a little different from the first hour. You'll recall, colleagues, that the last meeting we had a round table similar to the set up for this second hour.
In introduction, I want to first and foremost welcome our guests. Thank you so much for being here. We appreciate your willingness to come to Ottawa and engage with this committee. We always appreciate having folks living in the communities affected by the legislation that we're reviewing come to our committees so that they can be heard directly. We certainly appreciate that.
We're going to begin by introducing ourselves. We'll go around the table, starting on the left-hand side.
My name is Chris Warkentin and I'm the chair of the committee. I represent a riding in northwest Alberta. Thanks again for being here.
We'll turn to Jean.
