The meeting will come to order.
Welcome back to Ottawa all the visitors to Fort McMurray.
Today, we're going to hear witnesses in a normal exchange. I want to welcome Jim Carter from Syncrude; Mark Shaw from Suncor Energy Inc.; Rob Seeley from Albian Sands Energy Inc.; and Tony Clarke—of a different ship than the three companies—from the Polaris Institute.
We'll get right to it. We don't have any business today other than hearing witnesses. What our practice has been over the past while is to allow the witnesses ten to fifteen minutes to present an opening case, and then we'll just simply ask questions.
It's really an information session. Nobody's on trial here. We're just trying to get a better understanding of the oil sands, the development, and what is happening.
We had a very good day yesterday in Fort McMurray, but I'm sure that day raised a lot of questions too.
So without further ado, have you decided on an order or how you're going to make the presentations?
Jim, are you going to start?
