Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
As always, it's a pleasure to appear before you and your colleagues on the committee. I want to thank you all for the opportunity to discuss Bill C-293.
My executive director and general counsel, Dr. Zinger, is here as well. Dr. Zinger will speak briefly to the role of my office and how it is that we deal with offenders who file multiple complaints.
I'm then going to spend some time talking about the importance of having a fair, accessible, and expeditious internal grievance process. Finally, I'll offer some reflections on the Correctional Service of Canada's current internal grievance system and perhaps make some points for reform in the future.
With that, I'll turn it over to Dr. Zinger.
