The Chair Conservative David Sweet

I call the meeting to order.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Bonjour à tous. Welcome to the 39th meeting of the Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology.

We have four witnesses before us today from three different organizations. From the Canadian International Council, we have Karen Mazurkewich, who is director, intellectual property. From the Aerospace Industries Association of Canada, we have Lucie Boily, vice-president for policy and competitiveness, and Maryse Harvey, vice-president for public affairs. I understand you will be sharing your time. Finally, we have Tony Stajcer, who is vice-president of corporate research and development at COM DEV International.

I believe you have all been notified that you have six to seven minutes for your opening remarks, and then we'll go to rounds of questions.

I'll start with Ms. Mazurkewich. You have seven minutes, please.
