Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

And I want to thank Reverend Majed El Shafie for being here with us.

I also want to draw to the attention of the committee that our former colleague is here, Mario Silva, who we've all worked with. We appreciate the fact that he spoke at the interfaith breakfast this morning and did a very good job, as well.

Reverend El Shafie, your birthplace is Egypt, right?
