Thank you, Madam Chair.
Here's my first question.
Mr. Countryman, you're responsible for federal-provincial relations. In the spring economic update, the government provided $6 billion for the team Canada strong initiative, which would put in place a workforce training program through a wage subsidy.
What is the nature of the prior consultations with the provinces in the development of this measure?
Did you consult primarily with the Government of Quebec before developing this measure?
