I call the meeting to order.
Good afternoon, colleagues. Bonjour à tous. Welcome to the 90th meeting of the Subcommittee on International Human Rights. We are continuing our study of child labour and modern slavery.
Before us we have three quality witnesses. We have Kate Kennedy from The Freedom Fund, who is the managing director for North America. She's in Mexico right now, and her Internet is rather iffy, so we're going to have her testify first.
Before that, I'm going to introduce our second set of witnesses, who are from International Justice Missions Canada. We have Petra Bosma Kooman, director of marketing and public relations and Edwin Wilson, executive director.
First I'll go with Kate Kennedy, simply because technology is iffy and we want to get her testimony on record in case she drops out and we have to try to reconnect.
Ms. Kennedy, please go ahead. You have 10 minutes.
