Ladies and gentlemen, we'll call the meeting to order. I'd like to announce that there's a severe penalty if a cell phone rings. We're not sure what it is, but it is severe, I understand, so make sure it's on quiet mode, please.
Today is a date in history we all are aware of, the 62nd anniversary of D-Day—the beginning of the end, as some put it. It's quite a day to remember.
I would like to welcome the Honourable Peter MacKay, Minister for Foreign Affairs.
Mr. MacKay, how much time do you have to spend with us, so that we can judge ourselves accordingly?
