We'll call the meeting to order, this being the 20th meeting of the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights.
Today we're continuing our study on Bill C-26, an act to amend the Criminal Code. We have some witnesses before us today.
Just before we start, I'll just remind the committee that on Thursday we're going to deal with Mr. Comartin's Bill C-290. He has one witness. I believe that we'll be able to deal with that witness and do the clause-by-clause on Thursday. Hopefully we can finish that bill off. Then we're going to deal with a couple of groups that are going to come before us. And hopefully we can finalize the organized crime study.
Today we have three witnesses before us: Mr. Stewart, Mr. Preston, and Mr. Scholten. You're each given ten minutes, if you wish, for introductory statements, and then the questioning goes back and forth. It's a total of five minutes for questions and answers.
Whoever would like to go first, please feel free to do so.
