We'd like to call the meeting to order. We were delayed a little bit. We are continuing our study on the global markets action plan.
We have with us in this first hour Cam Vidler, director of international policy at the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Vidler has been with us a number of times, so we welcome you back to committee.
We have also from York University, Lorna Wright, professor. She is actually delayed because of a flight this morning. I think most of the members can relate to that. She will be joining us, perhaps by the end of the meeting, but as soon as she can, she will. If not, she'll join us in the second hour.
With that, Mr. Vidler, we'll yield the floor to you and hear your presentation and move on to questions and answers. The floor is yours.
