Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), our study on employability in Canada will now commence and we'll get a chance to hear from our witnesses.
I would like to welcome all the committee members back after our break. For some of our Liberal colleagues this is going to be the first time they've heard something on our employability study, which we've been working on over the past year.
We are going to get started. I'm going to ask the witnesses to try to keep their comments to seven minutes. I'll give you a two and a one and then a cut, so we can get through everybody.
Over the next two weeks Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, we're going to hear from witnesses and hopefully get a chance to get our report together for the employability study. I know that some of our Liberal colleagues have not had a chance, but hopefully over the next two weeks they'll get a flavour of what's going on.
The clerk has informed me that he can have the preliminary report ready. It could probably also act as a bit of a review for our Liberal colleagues, and hopefully we'll have that distributed possibly next Monday, a week yesterday. Then if you have any questions, we can maybe address those on the Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, as we have a chance to hear from additional witnesses before we start going through the report.
