I would like to welcome our second panel of the day testifying on Bill C-78. Again, I apologize for the rush. We just have a lot of witnesses we're trying to hear from.
We have Ms. Valerie Irvine, assistant professor in the faculty of education at the University of Victoria.
From the Canadian Children's Rights Council, we have Mr. Grant Wilson, president.
From the Men's Educational Support Association, we have Mr. Gus Sleiman, president, and Mr. Alan Hamaliuk, vice-president.
From UNICEF Canada, we have Ms. Lisa Wolff, director of policy and research.
Welcome to all.
Each group has eight minutes. We're going in the order of the agenda, so we'll start with Ms. Irvine.
