I gavel the meeting to order.
Prior to asking our witnesses to speak, parties should take note that our next anticipated meeting is on Tuesday afternoon. However, as you know, we may anticipate a voting marathon on Tuesday afternoon or evening, or Wednesday afternoon or evening, and Thursday morning, afternoon or evening. Keep an eye on whether we are actually going to be meeting on Tuesday and/or Thursday.
With that, I'm going to invite Dr. Ferguson, associate professor at the University of Manitoba, to give his five-minute opening statement. He will be followed by Dr. Sauvé from the Université de Montréal and Dr. Feiyue Wang from the University of Manitoba.
I look forward to what all of these university professors have to say about contaminated sites.
With that, Dr. Ferguson, go ahead, please.
