[English]

The Chair (Mr. Dan Ruimy (Pitt Meadows—Maple Ridge, Lib.)):
     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.
Mr. Brian Masse (Windsor West, NDP):
    You won't be forgetting my name after meeting one.
The Chair:
     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?
Hon. Maxime Bernier (Beauce, CPC):
    She's in charge of the election.
The Chair:
    Yes, she's in charge. I have nothing to do with it.
The Clerk of the Committee (Ms. Danielle Widmer):
    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.
Mr. Matt Jeneroux (Edmonton Riverbend, CPC):
    I nominate Maxime Bernier for vice-chair.
Hon. Maxime Bernier:
    Thanks, Matt. I appreciate it.
The Clerk:
    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.
Hon. Maxime Bernier:
    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.
The Chair:
    Thank you for those words.
    We will take a minute to go in camera, and then we can start discussing our future business.
