Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
We're not actually in the Parliament Buildings, but we're in Parliament, and a lot of the things we do seem disconnected from what's really happening out there. When we hear folks like you come and talk about how you've been touched and how your families have grown, it's very touching for all of us.
As you were speaking, Ms. Lewis, I could see other panel members listening and I think fighting back tears and thinking about their own experiences. I see people in our audience today, and even members of this panel, who know what you were talking about. For those of us who have two children, like me, it's hard to imagine what it's like to have four, let alone 14.
We understand there's a 30,000 child backlog of adopted kids. Can you take them all?
