Thank you, Mr. Masse.
(Motion negatived: nays 7; yeas 4)
I'm glad to see that we are all in good spirits after two weeks in our constituencies. It fills me with hope as we embark on this journey to do clause-by-clause on Bill C-27.
Once again, I would like to welcome the witnesses, who are here to answer our questions throughout the process.
We're meeting with Mark Schaan, senior assistant deputy minister, strategy and innovation policy sector in the Department of Industry; Samir Chhabra, director general, marketplace framework policy branch; and Runa Angus, senior director, strategy and innovation policy sector.
Mr. Garon, you have the floor.
