Bonjour à tous. Welcome to the 61st meeting of the Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology.
We have three esteemed guests with us today: Wayne Smith, chief statistician with Statistics Canada, Ian McKinnon, from the National Statistics Council, and Ivan B. Fellegi, former chief statistician.
We also have with us the Honourable Carolyn Bennett, who is going to begin with opening remarks on her bill, Bill C-568.
I take it you're filling in for another member as well?
