Good afternoon, everyone.
I call this meeting back to order.
Good afternoon and welcome, everyone.
This is a resumption of meeting number 28 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on National Defence, which started on Friday, April 30, 2021.
Today's meeting is taking place in a hybrid format, pursuant to the House order of January 25, 2021. Members are attending in person or remotely using the Zoom application. The proceedings will be made available via the House of Commons website. For your information, the webcast will always show the person speaking, rather than the entirety of the committee.
If interpretation is lost, please inform me immediately, and we will ensure that it is properly restored before resuming the proceedings.
I remind all members that all comments should be addressed through the chair. When speaking, please speak slowly and clearly, and when you are not speaking, your mike should be on mute.
With regard to the speaking list, we will continue with our usual practice.
We are resuming debate on Mr. Bezan's motion.
Go ahead, Mr. Bezan.
