Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome to all the witnesses today.
I've had the opportunity to meet with various organizations over the last year. Specifically, I met with with Participaction. We met on December 6 and had a very fruitful conversation. I can assure you that on this side of the House with my colleagues, we are definitely supportive of providing the support that the organization needs.
I want to build on the line of questioning that my colleague Dr. Ellis started.
In that meeting, we talked about looking at the a whole-of-government approach, if you recall.
I'll give you about a minute to talk about.... When we had that conversation, you also highlighted the positive impact that funding will bring to the organization, and not only to the government, but to society in a much broader sense.
