Good afternoon, everyone.
I now call the meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number 71 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Accounts.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted by the committee on Monday, April 24, 2023, the committee resumes its study of the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation.
I'd now like to welcome our witness.
Joining us by video conference, we have Mr. Mel Cappe, as a professor.
We've never met, sir, but it's nice to see you. Thank you for joining us today.
Mr. Cappe, I understand you have an opening statement. You have the floor for five minutes. It's over to you.
You're on mute, Mr. Cappe.
