Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'm going to ask some questions around data and data collection, but I want to start by saying thank you so much to the witnesses, and to express my gratitude to your members and also the workers. I've heard “respect and dignity” over and over again today, and I just want to share some respect and dignity to the workers and members.
I'm going to ask Madam Hall, Mr. DaSilva and then Madam Bisanz to respond.
On the respect and dignity aspect, traditional women's work, paid and unpaid, has long been undervalued, devalued and moving to exploitation, and I appreciate the fact that the witness testimony today will help change that. Going back to the data, around retention specifically, what kind of data should the federal government collect to highlight the reality of working conditions and gaps in compensation for PSWs and long-term care workers?
