I understand that you have a brief presentation. Before that, I just want to recognize the others in the room.
We have, from the Department of Employment and Social Development, Louise Levonian and Jacques Paquette. Louise is deputy minister and Jacques Paquette is senior assistant deputy minister, strategic and service policy branch. Also with us today from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation are Michel Tremblay, senior vice-president, policy, research and public affairs; and Carla Staresina, vice-president of affordable housing.
Welcome to you all.
Just as a reminder to everybody, we are televised this morning.
Mr. Duclos, without further ado or pomp and ceremony, I turn it over to you, sir.
