I'll call the meeting back to order. We're going to continue our consideration of Bill C-42.
In our final panel today we're going to hear from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police staff relations representative program. We have two members of the national executive here: Staff Sergeant Abe Townsend and Staff Sergeant Mike Casault.
We invite you to make a brief opening statement, and then we'll begin with seven-minute rounds again.
Mr. Townsend.
