I'm calling the 10th meeting of the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security to order.
As you know, we are continuing our study, on reference from the House of Commons by order of reference on Thursday, March 24, to study Bill C-7 a bill that all Canadians are concerned about, of course, but there are certain groups more implicated in it than others. We are delighted to have with us representatives from the Mounted Police Professional Association of Canada, the National Police Federation, and the Mounted Police Association of Ontario.
We're going to begin today with a 10-minute presentation from the Mounted Police Professional Association of Canada. It will be followed by a joint presentation from the National Police Federation and the Mounted Police Professional Association of Ontario for 10 minutes as well.
