Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I appreciate all the testimony from the witnesses today. You'll have to forgive me if I tend to spend most of my time inquiring about Ms. Menard. I'm actually from Manitoba and Métis, so I am a bit of a fan, I guess you could say. But I'll attempt to accomplish some business as well, so my questions won't all be softballs.
First, in relation to your play, The Velvet Devil, could you tell me a bit about the impetus for wanting to produce the play and how that all started?
