I call this meeting to order.
Hello everyone.
I welcome you to meeting No. 67 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Industry and Technology.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted by the committee on Monday, November 28, 2022, the committee is meeting to study the development and support of the electronics, metals and plastics recycling industry.
Today's meeting is taking place in a hybrid format.
I have the honour of introducing the witnesses joining us today. We welcome Ms. Theresa McClenaghan, executive director and counsel for the Canadian Environmental Law Association; Ms. Dawn Madahbee Leach, chairperson of the National Indigenous Economic Development Board; and Ms. Christina Seidel, executive director of the Recycling Council of Alberta. We also have Mr. Thompson Hickey, general manager of trail operations, and Ms. Amber Johnston‑Billings, vice-president of communities, government affairs and health, safety, environment and community systems; both are from Teck Resources Limited.
Without further ado, we will start with Ms. McClenaghan of the Canadian Environmental Law Association, who will have the floor for five minutes.
However, just before you start, I want to advise witnesses and members that we're expecting a vote at 6:10, so bells will start ringing at 5:40. Unfortunately, we'll probably have to adjourn the meeting a little earlier, but we'll get to that in due time.
Again, thank you to all of our witnesses today for being with us.
Without further ado, Madame McClenaghan, the floor is yours. I'm sorry if I mispronounced your last name. You have my apologies for that.
