Excellent.
Mr. Chairman, I'd like open my remarks by thanking you and your committee members for inviting us here today. We appreciate it very much.
My name is Rick Ekstein. I'm one of the founders of ALRO, the Association of Lumber Remanufacturers of Ontario. With me is Steven Rustja, the current president.
We have two other directors in the audience, Morgan Wellens and Marty Simhoni, who helped me start this a long time ago—when he had hair.
I'm in trouble now.
