Thank you, Mr. Peeling.
I think we will continue on with the witnesses and then go to questioning generally.
I'll now introduce Dr. Harvey Mead and Marylène Dussault. Dr. Mead is the president of Nature Québec. As many of us will recall, he was the chairman of the National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy. I understand Madame Dussault is a researcher as well, and she has done some work on the oil sands.
