We'll call this meeting to order, members. We are here at the 56th meeting of the Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology.
There are a couple of housekeeping items I need to address before turning to the witnesses. The first thing we have to do is to formally elect a vice-chair because our second vice-chair, Monsieur CrĂȘte, has moved to the finance committee. So I will technically vacate the seat as chair and ask the clerk to take over for the election of the vice-chair.
