Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I don't know what to say. We've heard so many groups who've come to bear witness, and the stories about poverty are each worse than the other one. Sometimes you wonder how low you can go; then you hear somebody else like the witnesses who are here today, and we go even lower. By lower, I don't mean anything prejudicial; I mean even worse conditions and even worse situations of people who have to suffer multiple conditions, if you understand what I mean. There is always something worse.
I would like to ask you a question that I have asked other groups. Rather than start from the bare bones, because we can never start from bare bones, and together we represent here the concerted efforts of government.... A number of actions have already been done. Certain things have been done that worked well for the people you represent. Others worked less well.
I'd like to hear from you what you'd like to see continuing or made better in what already exists from the federal government, and also the other actions that do not exist and that you'd like to see forthcoming. I'd like you to be as concrete as you possibly can, please. I'll leave it open to anyone who wishes to answer.
