Thanks a lot for the nomination and the election as your chair. I'm looking forward to working on the national defence committee. It's one I have a strong interest in.
Jean-François Lafleur and I worked together previously when I was chair of the agriculture committee in the 39th Parliament, and Guyanne Desforges and I worked together when I was chair of the environment committee in the last Parliament.
It's exciting to be on the national defence committee. I know that there are only a couple of returnees from the last committee, so we'll be leaning heavily on Cheryl and Jack for some of that corporate knowledge that you bring to the table.
Usually we like to go right into adopting the routine motions for this committee. Is there concurrence to proceed?
