Order.
Before we get started, I want to repeat my earlier comments that the next meeting won't be with respect to panels or witnesses. We will conclude the apprenticeship report and drafting instructions with respect to this report. We have a Centennial Flame motion to deal with. As well, it is the deadline for submission of names of witnesses for our next study. Keep that in mind if you haven't submitted them yet to the clerk. She would appreciate it if you could submit them.
To our panel, you are our last panel before we issue drafting instructions with respect to our report. Thank you for coming before our committee and in some cases sharing personal experiences. We appreciate that.
Welcome to Alex Masek from the Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa; Meenu Sikand, who will be sharing some personal experiences; and Linda Soulliere, from the Coalition for Persons with Disabilities. We're looking forward to hearing from you.
We'll start with you, Mr. Masek. Go ahead.
