I would like to call the meeting to order.
This is a study or review on the use of tasers. I'd like to welcome all the witnesses.
Today we have Mr. Walter Kosteckyj, a lawyer; Ms. Zofia Cisowski, mother of Robert Dziekanski; Riki Bagnell, mother of Robert Bagnell; and Patti Gillman, sister of Robert Bagnell.
Thank you all very much for coming today. Normally we ask if you would like to make an opening statement up to ten minutes long. We then turn it around to the committee to ask you questions. Thank you very much for coming.
I'd just like to make a comment for the members of the committee. If there's time after, we'd like to go in camera briefly to deal with Mr. Ménard's motion and any other future business. There are bells at 5:30 for a vote at 5:45. These are important witnesses, so we'll have to see how things go.
Mr. Dosanjh.
