Thank you, Chair. It's great to be here this afternoon.
I welcome all of the witnesses to the finance committee.
I wish to start with the Native Child and Family Services of Toronto.
In your pre-budget submission, you are requesting “$15 million in renewable, annual funding” from the Government of Canada “to ensure services can be delivered to over 8,000 unique community members through 164 programs.”
Now, I'm going to qualify this. Many times, when we get an ask at finance committee, it's a large one. It's much more than $15 million. If I asked you, Melissa, what the impact of $15 million in annual programming to the Native Child and Family Services of Toronto would be, could you please answer?
