Thank you very much, Chair.
Thank you to our witnesses. We have some great talent here that we're hearing from, and we do appreciate it.
I'll try to be quick with my questions because I only have six minutes here.
Let's start with Ms. McBride.
I'm guessing you weren't consulted on Bill C-29 as it was being drafted, and, based on your comments, five years is way too long to wait to have a member from your organization on the original board of directors, which then sets the framework for future boards going forward.
