Dear colleagues, I welcome you all back for the third panel of this evening.
To our witnesses, we welcome you. We're delighted you can join us.
We have returning, from Colleges and Institutes Canada, president and chief executive officer Denise Amyot. Welcome.
Returning from Genome Canada—and we're delighted to have you coming back—is Dr. Robert Annan, who's the president and chief executive officer, and Pari Johnston, vice-president of policy and public affairs. Welcome. It's nice to have you.
From the University of Calgary, we welcome president and vice-chancellor Edward McCauley. Welcome. We're grateful for your expertise tonight.
Each group will be given five minutes. At the four-and-a-half minute mark I will hold up a card, so you know there are 30 seconds left. We aim to be fair and we can't wait to hear from you.
We will begin with Colleges and Institutes Canada.
Ms. Amyot, the floor is yours.
