Order.
Good morning, and welcome to the second session of our 64th meeting of the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage. I am Gary Schellenberger, chair of the standing committee. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are doing a full investigation of the role of a public broadcaster in the 21st century.
I welcome here this morning you lovely ladies from Productions Virage and from Réalisatrices équitables.
I'm not very good at French; you will have realized that. This morning when I went to my door, there was a copy of La Presse outside. I sat down and read it for half an hour, and I kind of got an understanding of what it was.
So I apologize for not being able to say your names properly, but we do welcome both of your groups here this morning.
The first presentation will be made by Monique Simard.
Monique, please.
