Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for having me today. Since I know my French is poor, I will be making my presentation in English.
I also want to thank your staff, who have been very polite and very kind in accommodating me here today.
For the francophones here today, I will say it's always humorous to me that while I strongly encouraged my kids to learn French--which I think is a vital thing for our country--they didn't, and I will tell you that each one of my four sons has come to me and admitted that their father was right. That's a very rare thing for parents.
