Thank you, Madam Chair.
I would also like to thank the witnesses before us today.
A little earlier, we talked about education throughout the country.
I would like to redirect our attention and ask Mr. Bacon a question. In his testimony, on the one hand, he talked about his own experience. He went through the education system and succeeded quite well. On the other hand, he told us about his professional experience, which is very rich. He went from grade school all the way to university, be it the Centre des Premières Nations Nikanite, the Université du Québec à Montréal, UQAM, or in his own community of Mashteuiatsh.
If he is willing, I would like to hear him on everything we need to make sure education is made available and accessible, that it meets the needs of students and communities so they want to invest in their studies, get an education and succeed. Success is a notion that differs for every individual, but let's define it as meaning a sense of growth and development.
I give you the floor, Mr. Bacon.
