Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would also like to thank you for being here this morning. This committee is travelling right now to be able to meet people like you. Those who can afford it can always be heard in Ottawa. So, it is a privilege for us to welcome you here, and I want to thank you, especially because the content of your remarks will be very useful, I am sure.
We have before us three organizations that are more particularly concerned with disabled people's issues. My first question will be on Mr. Froese's presentation. Later on, I would like to deal with access to employment and job retention for disabled workers.
You just said that your committee has twelve members throughout Canada. Could you explain a bit more what you mean by that? I am trying to seen how representative this committee is. Do you mean twelve member organizations?
