Okay, folks, we're now going to begin the session.
I want to invite the mobile cameras to move on, if they will. Thank you very much.
We are obviously being taped here today so everyone on the committee is well aware of that.
As you know we're continuing with the study and review of the enhancements to the new Veterans Charter Act.
We're very pleased today to have with us somebody who knows quite a bit about the business and as I said to him earlier, we've shared an occasion or two together and I know how committed he is to it.
Senator Dallaire, we're very pleased to have you here today. I think you know enough about committees to know that we look forward to your presentation and you then have to put up with the questions that come around from the committee and we'll proceed that way. Are you ready, sir?
