Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. We have representatives from the Department of National Defence with us today. We are continuing our study of health issues and service provision.
Welcome to Rear-Admiral Andrew Smith, Brigadier-General Fred Bigelow, and Colonel Gerry Blais. Thank you for joining us today. We look forward to your presentation.
I think you know the format. You get your say, we ask questions, and we all go home happy. That's the way we like to run it.
We will wrap up at five o'clock. We have some business matters to deal with.
I understand, General, that you're going to open the presentation.
Thank you. Welcome.
