We're glad that Global Affairs could be back. As many of you know, on global affairs we've been fairly active at our committee for various reasons. We have the softwood lumber issues and agriculture issues with the United States and with the European agreement. We've just finished up last week with our cross-country tour. We did every province and we did a video conference with the territories. It's one thing to hear it here in the room, but when you're going to each province right into communities you get quite the perspective.
We were very successful. We had a lot of briefings and quite different perspectives across the country. We're glad you are here. I think the timing is good, after our travels, that you're here to give us an update or answer any questions on this agreement.
Ms. Hillman, you have the floor.
