Thank you very much.
Thank you to the clerk for arranging these witnesses at the last minute.
We appreciate you guys coming here at the last minute.
I'll be honest. I have a sheet full of statistics about food bank usage that I was going to ask you about, but I have to say that your statistics are much more critical, important and damning than any statistics I have here.
I'll focus my comments on Ms. Nicholls and Mr. Hetherington. Either one of you is welcome to comment.
How would you characterize the usage of food banks—your food banks and those in your catchment areas—now, as opposed to three years ago or five years ago, whichever number you wish to use?
