The Chair Conservative Art Hanger

I call the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights to order.

As noted on the agenda before us, on this first day of February 2007 we are continuing our study on gangsterism. Committee members, we have several members of the RCMP with us today, as well as Mr. Larry Butler, from the Vancouver Police Department. Jamie Graham, chief constable of the Vancouver Police Department, is here today as well.

Welcome, gentlemen, to our committee.

I think we'll get into your statements right away, in the order as it is on our agenda.

Deputy Commissioner Bourduas, if you would like to begin, please do.
