I call this meeting back to order.
Pursuant to the order of reference of Tuesday, October 17, 2023, and the adopted motion of Wednesday, December 13, 2023, the committee is resuming consideration of Bill C-49, an act to amend the Canada—Newfoundland and Labrador Atlantic Accord Implementation Act and the Canada-Nova Scotia Offshore Petroleum Resources Accord Implementation Act and to make consequential amendments to other acts.
In accordance with our routine motions, I'm informing the committee that all remote participants have completed the required connection tests in advance of the meeting. We do have two witnesses who are providing testimony and are still undergoing their connection tests.
We will start with our first speaker today, while the others get everything in order. Hopefully it's in good working condition when they begin.
Our first witness for the second hour, from the Fish, Food and Allied Workers Union, is Katie Power, industry relations representative. We also have Oceans North with Susanna Fuller, vice-president, conservation and projects. From SeaBlue Canada, we have Jennifer Josenhans, national coordinator.
We will begin with Katie Power from the Fish, Food and Allied Workers Union.
You have five minutes for an opening statement. The floor is yours.
