I call the meeting to order.
I thank our witnesses for being here.
We are embarking on a study on the benefits to Canada of the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement.
We have the department coming in on Wednesday. We have been interrupted; there have been a couple of false starts to this study, but nonetheless, today we're here. We have from the Dairy Farmers of Canada, Richard Doyle, the executive director. By video conference we have from the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, Scott Sinclair, senior research fellow.
Scott, can you hear us?
