Hi, folks.
Before we start with Pierre Morisset, the chairman of the scientific advisory committee, I wish to introduce Mr. Joel Watson of Heenan Blaikie, if he would like to stand.
Last night Mr. Watson and a group held a tremendous reception in room 216-N, with the private sector, assisting our veterans transitioning into the private sector. I must say that for all of who were there it was very positive. To Mr. O'Toole and the couple of other MPs who helped organize that, thank you. It was a great reception.
It's a turning point, I believe, in the cooperation between the government, and also with the private sector, and groups such as yours, sir, getting involved to ensure that our veterans can transition comfortably into a new line of work when they leave.
Thank you very much, sir. We greatly appreciate what you did last night. We wish you continued success.
