I call the meeting to order.
Welcome and good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
This is meeting number 13 of the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities. Today is Tuesday, February 25, 2014, and we are continuing our study concerning opportunities for aboriginal persons in the workforce. Today we have a split panel of witnesses to provide their testimony.
Before we move on to the introduction of the witnesses, I'd like to inform committee members on two fronts.
We will need 15 minutes for committee business at the end of our session, which will necessitate cutting each of the panels down to 50-minute instead of 60-minute panels, and that will cut the amount of questioning from members.
Second, a document has been distributed. It's in front of you in a blue folder. It is not translated. I would like the committee's approval to accept the document in a single language; otherwise we will remove it from the table. It was provided by one of our first panel witnesses.
Do I see any—?
Madame Groguhé.
