We have our witnesses and enough members at their seats, so we will call the meeting to order and continue our study of a high-level economic partnership agreement between Japan and Canada.
We want to thank our witnesses for coming forward. We have from the Canadian Council of Chief Executives, Sam Boutziouvis. Thank you for coming.
We have from Food Secure Canada, Paul Slomp, youth vice-president of the National Farmers Union, and Diana Bronson, executive director. Thank you for being here as well.
We'll start with you, Sam. The floor is yours, and we welcome your presentation.
