Thank you very much.
Thanks to all of you for coming today.
I would like to first talk about an issue that's had a huge impact on my community in Halifax and, of course, across Canada, and that's the rising rate of wildfires in our country that pose a real threat to the health and well-being of all Canadians.
One of the major threats to public health, particularly the health of our firefighters, is exposure to toxic flame retardants found in household products.
I think this might be a question for Ms. Johnson.
Can you describe what federal actions are being taken by the department in partnership with Health Canada to address this issue?
