And the following senior officers: Toby Labrie, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Ted Redmond, our Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Modular Space Solutions; and Mike Ridley, our Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Workforce Solutions. With this virtual meeting format, only registered shareholders and duly appointed proxy holders who have signed into this online webcast will be able to vote on the resolutions tabled at this meeting. As this meeting is being held virtually via live webcast, I would like to set out a few rules for the orderly conduct of the meeting. First, questions in respect of a motion can be submitted by any registered shareholder or duly appointed proxy holder using the instant messaging service of the virtual interface. Second, questions will be forwarded to me shortly after they are submitted, but will only be addressed if they relate to procedural matters or relate directly to the motions before the meeting. Third, for the purposes of the meeting today, voting on all matters will be conducted by electronic ballot. The polls have been opened by our scrutineers and registered shareholders and duly appointed proxy holders, who have not already voted, or who wish to change their votes are able to do so on each business item until polls are closed following the presentation of the business items. If we encounter any technical difficulties with the webcast during the meeting, please remain logged on, and we will resume as soon as possible. The meeting will now come to order. I will be the Chairman of the meeting. I will ask Scott Cochlan, our Corporate Secretary, to act as Secretary of the meeting and representatives of Odyssey Trust Company to act as scrutineers. In order to ensure that the meeting covers all of the business for which it was convened within a reasonable period of time, we have prearranged with a number of persons attending to move and second certain motions. This procedure is not an attempt to discourage participation, but merely a way to expedite proceedings. As mentioned, the polls are now open, and at this time, all registered shareholders and duly appointed proxy holders who have properly logged in with their control numbers or user name and wish to vote will be able to see on the screen all motions being brought forth at this meeting. Please register your votes by selecting the For or Withhold button next to each item to be voted on. If a registered shareholder or a proxy holder has already voted on all matters, there is no need to vote again unless you wish to change your vote on a matter. I have received confirmation from Odyssey Trust Company that all materials in respect of the meeting were mailed to shareholders in compliance with applicable securities requirements. I direct that the affidavit, together with copies of the documents mailed to the shareholders be kept by the secretary with the minutes of this meeting. The reading of the notice of meeting will be dispensed with. I have advised the scrutineers that there is a quorum present -- I have been advised by the scrutineers that there is a quorum present at this meeting.
