I'll call the meeting back to order.
For our panel discussion this afternoon we're really pleased to have a number of witnesses with us. We have from the Canadian Council for Refugees, Loly Rico, the president, who is with us today by video conference. We have from the Native Women's Association of Canada, Lynne Groulx, Marilee Nowgesic, and Francyne Joe, who is the president. From Babely Shades we have Awar Obob.
We are going to give each of our groups seven minutes to speak and we'll start with the Canadian Council for Refugees.
