Thank you, Chair.
I'd also like to welcome our witnesses. Thank you for your testimonies on this really important issue.
Maybe I'd start with Mrs. Tworek, and I apologize if I'm saying your name wrong. I can call you Heidi if you prefer.
You have direct experience in participating in citizens' assemblies. You have seen what the process looks like. From your experience, what makes them work? What tools for rebuilding trust and civic engagement are involved? What would you say are the conditions that have been in place for them to be successful in other places? I basically want to hear your experience in participating in citizens' assemblies and how we can use them as a tool to strengthen civic resilience in Canada.
