Good afternoon, colleagues. It's great to be here again today in sunny, beautiful Ottawa.
Today we have three witnesses, two this hour and one the next hour. We'll be doing some committee business in the last half hour.
In front of us today we have, from Lynch Fluid Controls, Ernie Lynch, president.
Joining us by video conference from beautiful Burnaby, British Columbia, is John Kalbfleisch, chief operating officer of Alpha Technologies Ltd.
I'll start off with you, Mr. Lynch. You have 10 minutes.
