We'd like to get this started. We'll ask our members to take their seats and we'll get going.
We are continuing our study on the comprehensive economic and trade agreement between the EU and Canada. Tomorrow, we'll be into the Trans-Pacific Partnership. As a committee, we have a whole day of witnesses before us today.
I'll just let the committee know that we will be interrupted to some degree by a fire alarm from about 9:55 to 10:30; they are doing a drill. We don't have to move, depending on the noise level. If the noise gets too intense and we can't carry on with the meeting, we'll break, suspend at that time, and bring back the next panel a little later once the fire drill is over. We will play that as best we can depending on the noise level. So don't get too alarmed when the fire alarm goes off.
We want to thank our witnesses for coming forward. In this first hour we have with us, from the Wavefront Wireless Commercialization Centre Society, James Maynard, and from the Business Council of British Columbia, Jock Finlayson.
It's great to have you with us.
I see in my notes, Mr. Finlayson, that you're up first. We look forward to your testimony, and then we'll get into questions and answers. We'll kick it off with you, sir. Thank you.
