Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you all for being here today.
Charmaine, in particular, thank you for being here. It's great to have an Olympic silver medallist in our presence. I wish you had brought your medal with you today.
I have some questions for you. You said in your statement that our support is second to none in Canada for high-performance athletes. I don't think this was always the case. In fact, I think when you were participating for Canada, amateur athletes struggled greatly in trying to find the time, the support, and the expertise in coaching. We didn't have the financial support backing our athletes.
Can you explain some of the differences that athletes are enjoying today compared to when you were participating for Canada?
