Thank you, Chair.
Welcome to everybody. In particular, welcome to my friends from Nova Scotia. It's always a good day for Ottawa when somebody comes from Nova Scotia, usually bringing some wise advice.
One of the real highlights of my short time as a member of Parliament was the day we signed the agreement on early learning and child care in Nova Scotia. Dr. Hamm was excited about it. I think David Morse might have been the minister at the time. Ken Dryden, Paul Martin—we signed this at the Shearwater family resource centre. For people in the crowd, heroes in child care in Nova Scotia—Sue Wolstenholme, Pat Hogan, Margo Kirk—people who had been advocating for this for years, it was the dawn of a much better day.
I assume you share the support of the early learning and child care initiative that was signed on that day in May, Minister, do you not?
