Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to thank the witnesses for being here. I particularly want to thank Senator Munson for all the good work he has done. People around the table know our family was one of those families that had to fight the school board. My wife put her career on hold to help with our son, who was diagnosed with Asperger's. We went for the private school, and I'm happy to say he started university this year. So with a lot of hard work and sacrifice.... The success stories are out there.
With the system we have in Canada, there are challenges with provincial–federal jurisdiction. Dr. Aubin, you mentioned the steps the government has taken. Senator Munson said we have to start thinking outside the box, that we have to start working on science and research.
Could you talk about the role of the federal government and the role of the provinces and territories in delivering health services for people with autism spectrum disorder in Canada?
