Thank you very much, Chair.
Thank you for your presentation and for being here today.
I have some experience working with the medical officer of health back in a previous life as a regional councillor, as chair of the combined health and social services committee. Of course, the MOH reported back to me, so I've worked with this.
I've also seen you publicly commenting on some issues and I was very impressed. Knowing of your role, I thought the message you were conveying and what you were saying to the Canadian people was very good. I was very impressed. I wanted to start with that compliment, because it's the last one we're going to hear.
