Thank you, committee. We'll move on.
Today we have a panel to present to us. I would like to welcome Mr. Steven Staples from the Polaris Institute. He's the one with the high-tech stuff--high tech to me, probably not so high tech to others.
We also have Kevin McCort from CARE Canada, I believe. Kevin, it's good to have you here.
Finally, from the Canadian Council for International Cooperation, we welcome Mr. Gerry Barr and Ms. Erin Simpson.
We'll start with Mr. Staples and move down. We'll have all the presentations, and then we'll get into our rounds of questioning.
The floor is yours, sir.
