Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to thank the witnesses for being with us today.
I am going to start by asking Mr. Leclerc a few questions.
The national situation is a matter of concern to me. After hearing your testimony and reading newspaper articles and reports, I have to admit that the situation in Quebec is of great concern to me.
How do you explain the fact that Quebec is not learning from experiments being done elsewhere in Canada? Vancouver is an example of that. How do you explain that in Quebec, the necessary training of the necessary number of people to do this is not getting done? You talked about that briefly, but I would like you to talk in a little more detail about the reasons that explain this situation. I am thinking about training for this in Montreal, particularly. When we look at Quebec as a whole, it seems to be disproportionate, in terms of the impact that this kind of training would have in Montreal. We agree that major centres are more affected by this problem initially.
