Good. Thank you.
I think we will begin. We're going to take the first approximately 50 minutes with our first two witnesses. We have, from the Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters, Jean-Michel Laurin, who is vice-president of global business policy. From Petrobank Energy and Resources Ltd. in Calgary, we have John D. Wright, president and chief executive officer.
We'd like a five- to ten-minute opening to give a brief background, and then the committee will pose questions to you individually or to the two of you as we proceed.
If you're ready to go, I wonder if we could ask John Wright to begin.
