Thank you, Mr. Kapoor.
Before proceeding with our questions, I want to say that the first round is a reserved block of six minutes for the Conservative Party, the Liberal Party, the Bloc Québécois and the New Democratic Party.
Given that I am replacing the chair, who has unfortunately been kept at home, I want to welcome my colleague René Arseneault, who is with us virtually but is not entitled to vote.
Mr. Arseneault, thank you for being here in spite of the situation you find yourself in.
For committee members, I am going to withdraw as chair. I am going to sit in my chair as a member so that I can question the witnesses.
I invite the second vice-chair to act as chair.
