I call the meeting on our study of Bill C-49 back to order.
Welcome to the witnesses we have with us now. They are Jeanette Southwood, vice-president, strategy and partnerships, Engineers Canada, from the city of North York; and Ray Orb, president of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities.
We know you very well. We have a member on this committee who reminds us constantly about Saskatchewan. We're really happy to have you with us here, as well.
Of course, we also have George Bell from Metrolinx.
Welcome to all of you.
Mr. Orb, do you want to start?
