I'd like to thank all the presenters.
Certainly we've heard a lot of information again here today. It's been very interesting.
My first question is going to be Ms. Mongeau, please. I was certainly interested in what you had to say when you described childhood obesity and the whole issue as not only a public health problem, but also as a societal problem. I think that's so very true. We've got a whole society where kids hardly walk to school any more. They get bussed from a very young age. Parents are afraid to let their children outside to play; there are safety issues. There are a lot of issues in communities, whether they're large or small, that make it difficult for children to be out on their own.
We've got parents working, both parents or single-parent families, and the parent comes home from work tired. Something quick and easy is often what happens. As the minister has said, Home Ec is not taught in schools any more, at least in Ontario. I don't know if it is in the other provinces. So we lead very harried lifestyles.
How do we effect societal changes that can address some of these issues?
