Good morning, everyone. Let us begin our 37th meeting of the Standing Committee on National Defence.

Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted by the committee on Monday, February 23, 2009, we continue our study on Canadian Arctic sovereignty.

I'm very pleased to have with us some witnesses from the Qikiqtani Inuit Association and from Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated: John Amagoalik, George Eckalook, and John Merritt.

Thank you very much for being with us.

I will give the floor first to Mr. Amagoalik. If you would like to introduce the people with you, please go ahead.
