Good afternoon everybody. Welcome back to Ottawa. I'm glad everybody survived their constituency week and other activities they were involved in.
We have a busy day today, so I'm going to dispense with a lot of formalities and get right into it.
I'm going to welcome our first two speakers from the National Energy Board. I was going to start by trying to be humorous and suggest we had to cancel again because we have more votes, but given the number of times we've done that, it would probably not be in good taste.
Instead I'll just say thank you very much for being here today, and a big thank you for your patience and for being good enough to come back several times under the circumstances.
I would like to introduce Mr. Jim Fox, the vice-president of integrated energy information and analysis with NEB. He's in Calgary and he's with Shelley....
