Thank you very much, operator. Good afternoon, everyone, and online and in person here, and welcome to the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Equinox Gold. On behalf of our directors, management and employees, I thank you for joining us today. Thank you to the shareholder who came in person and the other shareholders amongst our management team and our distinguished auditors, KPMG, and our legal advisory firm, Blakes. And I want to also thank Jamie Kariya for the hospitality of Blakes in allowing us to use this room. Thank you very much.

I'm pleased to offer an online option so that all shareholders can join the meeting. Since this is a hybrid meeting with some shareholders here in person and others joining us online, the following process will apply for the conduct of the meeting. Firstly, questions about a motion can be submitted online by any registered shareholder or proxy holder using the Q&A icon on your screen. If
