The Chair Conservative Ed Fast

I call to order meeting number 32 of the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights for today, Wednesday, June 17, 2009.

Members, you have before you the agenda for today. We're continuing our review of Bill C-232, An Act to amend the Supreme Court Act (understanding the official languages). We'll be hearing from two separate panels of witnesses.

For the first hour, I'm pleased to welcome retired Justice John Major. Thank you for being here and welcome to our committee. I think you know the process. You have 10 minutes to present, and then we'll open up the floor to questions from members.
