Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for being here today.
Ms. Lalande, Ms. Lauzon mentioned language as being one of the barriers, but my question for you is about the following. You have probably looked at a lot of macro stuff. Do you have anything, even if it's anecdotal, to indicate which would be more successful? I totally get that, if you're a student in Thunder Bay and you've had a chance to experience the city, the beauty of what it is and all that kind of stuff, that would be more likely to give you an opportunity to want to stay on after school. What are some of the other factors? I realize that we lose a lot of rural people because they come to the cities where there's a community group or part of that. What would be some of the other things that would help attract people to rural life more?
