Good morning, everyone. I call this meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number 16 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security. Today's meeting is taking place in a hybrid format pursuant to the House order of November 25, 2021. Members are attending in person in the room and remotely, using the Zoom application. Per the directive of the Board of Internal Economy on March 10, 2022, all those attending the meeting in person must wear a mask, except for members who are at their place during proceedings.
Members and witnesses participating virtually may speak in the official language of their choice. You have the choice at the bottom of your screen of the floor, English or French. With regard to a speaking list, the committee clerk will advise the chair on whose hands are up to the best of his ability, and we will do the best that we can to maintain a consolidated order of speaking for all members, whether they are participating virtually or in person.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motions adopted by the committee on Thursday, February 17, 2022, the committee is resuming its study of the rise of ideologically motivated violent extremism in Canada.
With us today by video conference we have, as an individual, Aurélie Campana, full professor; Mubin Shaikh, counter extremism specialist; and from Insight Threat Intelligence, Jessica Davis, president and principal consultant.
We allow up to five minutes for each of our witnesses to proceed with opening remarks and then rounds of questions. Given the technologies at the moment, I'm going to start with Mr. Shaikh.
You have five minutes for an opening comment, sir. The floor is yours. Please proceed.
