Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I would like to thank all of our guests for appearing here today.
We've covered a broad range of issues that are definitely interconnected: ensuring that there is healthy food available; the labelling of food; and preparing food.
I was interested in looking at the presentation by Québec en Forme. You said that daily life has changed for parents and children since the seventies and eighties. One of the bullet points speaks to time spent preparing meals, which went from nine hours a week in 1986 to five hours in 2005. I found that interesting, and I just want to link that to the presentation by our witnesses from the Food for Thought program.
I am very pleased that you are here today. Of course you are from my home city of Saskatoon, and your program is run right in my riding. I'm very excited to have you here.
I'm also very interested in the guiding principles you've outlined and the fact that you promote the engagement of your participants in relationships that emphasize strength and that facilitate empowerment. Even the story you shared demonstrates that. I have had the opportunity to participate in this program, and I know full well the very good work that is done.
I want to ask just a few questions about the program itself. How many women participate in a class? How many classes do you offer, and how many women participate in a class?
