Good morning, everybody. We're a couple of minutes behind. We're going to just jump right into it today.
We are continuing with our study on what I am going to call CASL, Canada's anti-spam legislation, today.
Today, we have, as individuals, Michael Fekete, partner at Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP; Michael Geist, Canada research chair in Internet and e-commerce law, faculty of law, University of Ottawa; and Adam Kardash, counsel, Interactive Advertising Bureau of Canada.
Representing organizations, we have from the Information Technology Association of Canada, David Messer, vice-president, policy, and finally, from Rogers Communications Inc., Deborah Evans, associate chief privacy officer.
Thank you all very much for coming today. We have a busy day with lots of witnesses. You'll each have about eight minutes to present and then we'll get into our lines of questions.
We're going to get started with Mr. Fekete.
