Ed Komarnicki at the Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities Committee

I call the meeting to order.

First, I would like to thank the witnesses from Statistics Canada for appearing before us today.

We welcome Sylvie Michaud, director general of the education, labour, and income statistics branch; Tracey Leesti, director of labour statistics; and Diane Galarneau, section chief of current labour analysis and perspectives on labour and income.

We're engaging in a study relating to opportunities for older workers in the workforce. After you present, questions will be posed by members of the committee. We will go for about an hour.

With that, Sylvie, go ahead.
