Welcome back, everybody. Thank you.
We have our next panel of witnesses. Joining us by video conference is Mr. Maillet, vice-president, Nova Scotia, for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency. With also have with us Mr. Salembier and Mr. Mitchell from the Department of Western Economic Diversification, and Ms. Brassard, deputy minister and president of Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regions of Quebec.
Have all of you appeared before committees before?
I don't need to explain the process then. Okay, that's good.
We can jump right into the presentations. Each group will be given up to 10 minutes to deliver their remarks to be followed by questions from around the table. I'll ask for volunteers for who wants to go first.
Ms. Brassard, thank you.
