EVIDENCE

[Recorded by Electronic Apparatus]

[English]
Welcome, everybody, to a new session, a new life. We're all energized. We're all excited.
We have some new members with us.
Mary Ng, welcome to INDU.
On this side, we have a whole new lineup. We have Maxime, Matt Jeneroux, and Jim Eglinski. Of course, Bob, you're back. I mean Brian's back. Bob. I have a Bob Masse in my riding.
Before we go in camera to do committee business, we have one order of business to do and that regards the vice-chair.
Do you have a script for me?
Pursuant to Standing Order 106(2), the first vice-chair must be a member of the official opposition. I am now prepared to receive motions for the first vice-chair.
It has been moved by Matt Jeneroux that Maxime Bernier be elected as first vice-chair of the committee.
Are there any further motions?
Is it the pleasure of the committee to adopt the motion?
Some hon. members: Agreed.
(Motion agreed to)
The Clerk: I declare the motion carried and Maxime Bernier duly elected the first vice-chair of the committee.
Congratulations.
I have to deliver a speech now.
I just want to, first of all, let you know that I'm very pleased to be here, to be back in this portfolio and, in my role as critic, I will be very positive, as you know. I like this portfolio because I was industry minister before. I was on the committee before the leadership race, and now I'm back.
Dan, you were the chair at that time. You're still the chair, and I think we'll have fun working together, but also, we have to be efficient and that will be the two goals that we'll have in mind.
