Good morning, everyone.
I think everyone is present, whether by video conference or in person.
I would like to welcome Mr. Boulerice, who is replacing Ms. Collins and is joining us by video conference, and Mr. Maloney, who is replacing Mr. Ali.
I won't read the names of all the witnesses now, but I will introduce them when it is their turn to speak. This afternoon, our time is precious, as a vote will be held at 5:45 p.m.
We will now give the floor to Chandra Madramootoo, distinguished James McGill professor, from McGill University.
Professor Madramootoo, the floor is yours for five minutes.
