Welcome, everybody.
Thank you for joining us today for our meeting.
In our first hour we have some familiar faces: the Forest Products Association of Canada. You guys need no introduction and you know how the process works too. Derek Nighbor and Kate Lindsay, thanks very much for joining us today. We really appreciate it. From the Quebec Forest Industry Council, we have Jean-François Samray.
Each group has up to 10 minutes to deliver opening remarks. You can speak in the language of your choice; translation services are available. Without taking up any more time listening to me, I will turn the floor over to you.
Derek and Kate, why don't you start us off since you're first on the agenda?
