Jessica Fancy-Landry Liberal South Shore—St. Margarets, NS

Thank you very much, Ms. Krieger.

At the end of this, I also want to highlight a non-profit organization in Nova Scotia that I was a part of, called Techsploration. Their sole mission and vision was to have female skilled trades or STEAM or STEM mentors with different positions take on young girls and fulfill mentorships with them to let them have experience, especially within those vulnerable demographics.

Thank you all for coming today. It's really appreciated.

The Chair Liberal Bobby Morrissey

Thank you, Ms. Fancy. That concludes the second round.

Thank you to the witnesses for appearing here today.

Given that we've gone beyond the two hours, the committee will adjourn and reconvene on October 21.

The meeting is adjourned.
