I can't speak today as a representative of the National Advisory Council on Early Learning and Child Care. I was told that very clearly before I appeared before the committee.
I just want to say that I do not agree entirely with the comment that was made. The Council is very broadly representative and brings together people who represent Quebec, Indigenous communities and educators, as well as a lot of people working in the field.
I don't want to make any comments on the work done by the Council. However, regarding its composition, I think it really is very representative and offers a high degree of expertise, coming from both academics and people in the field. There is also good representation of Indigenous communities.
