We are back.
With us now is the second panel.
I remind our witnesses that before speaking, please wait until I recognize you by name, and if you are on video conference, please click on the microphone icon to unmute yourself.
Now I'd like to welcome our witnesses, but I'd like to inform the committee that we have a little problem with the Zoom connection for one of our witnesses. For the interpreters, we're going to try, because I think he has five minutes of opening remarks. If it doesn't work, I will invite him to either send us his opening remarks or try to come at another time to physically be with us.
First of all we have, from the Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans in Canada, ANAVETS, Mr. Gordon MacEachern, dominion vice president and chairman of the advocacy committee.
From the Royal Canadian Legion, we have Carolyn Hughes, director, veteran services at national headquarters.
I'd like to start with you on Zoom, Mr. Gordon MacEachern. The floor is yours for five minutes. Go ahead, please.
