Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses. There were some very interesting stories. I want to get to several of you in the five minutes I have.
I want to start with Kara and CĂ©line.
You've talked about the merits of a national day care program. I just want you to know that I live in and represent a riding of 19,000 square kilometres. I have many small communities in my riding. My constituents avail themselves of child care through the use of neighbours, family and friends. I'm just wondering how you think a national day care program would provide my constituents with choice.
