Welcome, everybody.
It's a very sombre day, but we're here in accordance with Standing Order 108(2) to deal with Arctic infrastructure for our study on northern infrastructure projects and strategies.
Before us we have witnesses from the PDAC, whose large conference is at the beginning of March. From SSi Micro Ltd. we have Dean Proctor.
Welcome, all of you, to our committee.
You'll have up to 10 minutes to present. I believe we only have two presenters—we thought there were four. You have up to 10 minutes. If you use less than that, we'll have more time to ask you questions. After the presentations we'll go to rounds of questioning from the MPs.
Before we begin, let me say that we're in a process of truth and reconciliation. That means understanding where we are and recognizing some of the history that made Canada and many of the issues that we are trying to grapple with in this committee. We're on the unceded territory of the Algonquin people here in Ottawa. I encourage everyone to recognize that as we go forward through the process of reconciliation.
Welcome to our committee.
It seems that the PDAC is starting. You can share your time or have one presenter. It's up to you.
