Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Good morning and welcome to all of you. What you say is absolutely extraordinary. I can also understand your impatience in wanting an anti-poverty plan. You're right: fighting poverty is economically more cost-effective than trying to resolve its devastating effects on our society. I come from Quebec, which has had a framework law for this purpose since 2002. We're seeing its positive effects on measures.
Ms. Yalnizyan, you said there were differences, gaps between the provinces. What could the federal government's contribution be, in view of those gaps between the provinces?
