Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I will start off with Ms. Stoddart. Thank you very much for being here. It's obvious that you're very passionate about this. Your testimony was very helpful, particularly when you were talking about the nexus between organized crime and animal fighting. It was very helpful that you cited various articles and journals.
Given your own experience, could you elaborate on that? You would be one of the only people we have the opportunity to hear from who really understand what's going on out there. You've been on the front lines.
Would you care to elaborate on the intersection between organized crime, the economics behind it and things of that nature?
