Welcome to the 43 rd meeting of the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities. The date today is Tuesday, June 9.
First of all, I would like to welcome our witnesses. We do not have cards for you yet, but they are being made right now. So you will have cards with your names on them in a few moments.
We have several groups here today: Community Foundations of Canada, Canada's Association for the Fifty-Plus and Citizens for Public Justice.
Since we don't have the cards, I will begin with Madame Monica Patten, présidente-directrice générale, and Madame Sara Lyons, conseillère en chef.
We can begin with you and then we will go on. I just want to get cracking.
