Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Minister, for agreeing to appear before us today. Obviously it's a great opportunity for the members of the committee to get to know you and to discuss this important department.
There has been a lot of confusion around the strategic review process. Obviously we are very proud of the fact that we have done nothing but increase investment into the Department of Canadian Heritage since taking government. That said, there are a number of programs highlighted under the strategic review that were found to be not as effective a use of money as others. Could you outline those and give us some cause as to why those programs were highlighted?
