I call this meeting to order.
Good afternoon, everyone.
Welcome to meeting number 126 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Accounts.
Today's meeting is taking place in a hybrid format, pursuant to the Standing Orders. Members are attending in person in the room and remotely using the Zoom application.
Before we begin, I would like to ask all members and other in-person participants to consult the cards on the table for guidelines to prevent audio feedback incidents.
Please note the following preventative measures in place to protect the health and safety of all participants, including our interpreters.
Remember to only use the approved black earpieces. Keep your earpieces away from the microphones at all times. When you're not using your earpiece, place it face down on the sticker placed on the table for this purpose, generally to your right.
Thank you all for your co‑operation.
As a reminder, all comments today should be addressed through the chair.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(3)(g), the committee is resuming consideration of Report 1 of the 2024 report of the Auditor General of Canada, entitled “ArriveCAN”, referred to the committee on Monday, February 12, 2024.
I'd now like to welcome all our witnesses.
From Donna Cona, we have John Bernard, chief executive officer, along with Barry Dowdall, president. Thank you for being here today.
From KPMG, we have Lydia Lee, partner and national leader of the digital health transformation practice, and Imraan Bashir, partner, cybersecurity. Thank you both for coming in. It's good to see you again, Ms. Lee.
From TEKsystems, we have Christopher Loschmann, director of Canadian government services. Thank you as well for being here today.
Each of the witnesses collectively, as in each of the individual companies, has five minutes for opening remarks. I believe KPMG will begin.
You have the floor for five minutes, please.
