Thanks to those who came here today.
I have three questions for you, Mr. Poirier, and one for Madam Guitard. If I have any time, left Dr. Lunney has a question and I have no idea how to say it, so I'll let him do it.
Pierre, first, what role could paramedics play beyond emergencies if they were to maximize their scope of practice? Second, could you provide more information on community paramedicine and examples of their scope of practice? Third, how would inclusion in the federal health workforce strategy benefit paramedics and Canadians?
Ms. Guitard, you brought up quite an interesting topic that intrigues me, and that is with regard to Corrections Canada and the release through federal penitentiary—not provincial jail but federal penitentiary—and the need for better coping skills for those who are being released. I think it's something that is sorely missed because they have things that trigger them very quickly when they're released, and I wanted to hear your thoughts on that part of it.
Mr. Poirier is first and Madam Guitard second.
