I call this meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number three of the Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities.
Pursuant to the order of reference of Monday, June 16, the committee is resuming its consideration of Bill C-5, an act to enact the free trade and labour mobility in Canada act and the building Canada act.
Today's meeting is taking place in a hybrid format, pursuant to the Standing Orders. Members are attending in person in the room and remotely by using the Zoom application.
Before we begin, I want to ask all in-person participants to consult the guidelines written on the cards on the table. These measures are in place to help prevent audio and feedback incidents and to protect the health and safety of all participants, including our interpreters. You will also notice a QR code on the card, which links to a short awareness video.
Colleagues, I would now like to welcome our witnesses for the next two hours. Appearing before us today, we have the Honourable Chrystia Freeland, Minister of Transport and Internal Trade.
Welcome to you, Minister.
