I call the meeting back to order.
Let me start by making a few comments for the benefit of the witnesses. We have a very fulsome panel. We have six people from different groups.

I'd like to welcome our witnesses on this second panel.

In the room, from the Canadian Forest Owners, we have Andrew de Vries, chief executive officer, and Vincent Miville, vice-chair.

Finally, on Zoom, from Tolko Industries Ltd., we have Brad Thorlakson, executive chairman.
You will each have five minutes or less for your opening remarks. If you could stick as close to the time as possible, we'd appreciate it. I know my colleagues will be anxious to provide comments and ask you questions.
We are going to start with Mr. Krips. You have the floor for five minutes.
