Committee, we will get started. We're still waiting for some of our members to come, but they can certainly join us in progress.
We have two witnesses today.
We have Diane Bergeron, the national director, government relations and advocacy, at the Canadian National Institute for the Blind.
Welcome, and thank you for coming today.
We have Kory Earle, former president, former executive director, and lifetime member of People First of Lanark County.
We welcome opening statements from either of you.
Kory, do you want to go first?
