I'd like to call the meeting to order and thank everybody for attending.
We have very important work to do today. We are going to go through a very significant bill related to child and family services.
We are on the unceded territory of the Algonquin people. It is part of the initial process of understanding the truth of Canada's history and moving toward reconciliation. I am privileged to be a resident on Treaty 1 and the homeland of the Métis people.
As is customary, are there any objections to moving the definitions and the preamble to the end? I see none, thank you.
I believe I've asked for printed copies be circulated.
Since we have no amendments in clauses 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, shall clauses 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 carry?
(Clauses 2 to 6 inclusive agreed to)
(On clause 7)
We have a proposed amendment on clause 7.
Mrs. McLeod.
