Thank you, Mr. Clerk.
Welcome to the witnesses. I welcome you to our second panel.
I will quickly go over the rules before we start.
You can speak in your official language. Just ensure that you have the proper interpretation language selected at the bottom of the screen. Please speak slowly and clearly, and when you're not speaking, your microphone should be on mute.
With respect to the speakers list, the clerk and I will do our best to ensure that we're maintaining that speakers list. I have a one-minute card and a 30-second card that will allow us to keep time for the questioning.
At this time, I'd like to welcome our witnesses. Appearing before us today as individuals, we have Dr. Catherine Frazee and Dr. Ewan Goligher. Appearing on behalf of the Council of Canadians with Disabilities, we have Dr. Heidi Janz and Taylor Hyatt. From Living with Dignity, we have Michel Racicot.
I understand that Ewan Goligher, who was having difficulties getting here, is now in the virtual room. Welcome.
I'm excited to have all of you. I understand that some of the witnesses have audio recordings, so we'll go ahead and start and try to provide as much as possible.
Dr. Catherine Frazee, please go ahead. You are our opening witness. You have five minutes.
