We'll resume.
Hopefully all of you on Zoom and Mr. Neve here learned my protocol on 30-second cards. I give a red card when your time's up. I don't like interrupting.
Make sure that you have your interpretation on the right channel so that we don't have any challenges with interpretation. For those on Zoom, you can pick floor, English or French. In the room, you can do the exact same thing.
We'll begin by having opening statements from our witnesses for five minutes.
We have, as individuals, Mr. Robert Currie, professor of law, Schulich school of law, Dalhousie University; Dr. Joanna Harrington, professor of law, faculty of law, University of Alberta, by video conference; and Alex Neve, senior fellow, graduate school of public and international affairs, University of Ottawa.
Thank you for returning. I think you guys were all scheduled the other day. Unfortunately, because of technical difficulties, we had to reschedule you. Thank you for your consideration in that regard.
I'll begin with Mr. Currie, for five minutes.
