Members and witnesses, we're going to get started.
We just heard from our first panel, and now we're on to our second panel on our cross-country tour on the pre-budget consultations. We're here in the Atlantic provinces. We've been to P.E.I. and New Brunswick. We're in Nova Scotia now, and from here we're headed to Newfoundland.
We're delighted to be here in beautiful Halifax.
With us today as witnesses, we have, as an individual, Norman Nahas; Nourish Nova Scotia, with Lisa Roberts, executive director, and Lindsay Corbin, coordinator of the Nova Scotia chapter of the Coalition for Healthy School Food; Nova Scotia Community College, with president Donald Bureaux; and from Syria-Antigonish Families Embrace, retired school board superintendent Jack Beaton.
Welcome, everybody. We are going to our opening statements.
We are going to start with Ms. Lisa Roberts from Nourish Nova Scotia.
