Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
Good afternoon.
Welcome to the 25th meeting of the Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology.
We have before us five witnesses. From the Department of Natural Resources, we have Philippe Dauphin, director general of CanmetMATERIALS in the minerals and metals sector. From the National Research Council of Canada, we have John McDougall, president. From the Transportation Safety Board of Canada, we have Jean Laporte, chief operating officer; and Wendy Tadros, chair; and Kirby Jang, director for investigations for rail and pipeline. Three of these individuals will be giving opening remarks.
Just following the sequence listed in our orders of the day, I'll begin with you, Mr. Dauphin. How long are your remarks? Are they within 10 minutes?
