Thank you very much.
Let's go back to our business.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted on Monday, October 3, 2022, the committee is resuming its study on the experience of women veterans.
Today's meeting is being held in a hybrid format. All the connection tests have been done. As you know, this room is equipped with a high-quality audio system, but I would ask all committee members, and the witnesses, to be very careful not to have their headset too close to the microphone to prevent any sound problems. That's for the welfare of our interpreters, who do excellent work.
Before we welcome our witnesses, I would like to provide a trigger warning. We may be discussing experiences related to general health and mental health. This may be triggering to viewers, members or staff with similar experiences. If you feel distressed or need help, please advise the clerk.
I welcome our three witnesses for the two hours.
Today we have, from the RCMP Veteran Women's Council, Ms. Jane Hall, member, and from the Veteran Farm Project Society, Ms. Jessica Miller, CD, founder and director.
We also welcome Ms. Marion Turmine, the director of Quebec operations for the Veterans Transition Network.
You will each have five minutes for your opening remarks. After an hour, we will take a five-minute break.
Ms. Jane Hall, I'd like to start with you. You have five minutes for your opening statement. We already have a copy of it. Please start.
