Hold on one second. We'll get the clerk to figure this out.
Can you hear me now? Did you hear my introductory comments?
Okay, for those who are not members, at the bottom of your screen, just select the interpretation you'd like. There's English or French, or the floor, if you're bilingual. If you're going to ask questions, use the “raise hand” function if you're online and the clerk and I will do our best to acknowledge you.
I was just about to introduce our witnesses.
From BC Care Providers, we have Terry Lake, chief executive officer, by video conference.
We have the Canadian Association for Long Term Care. Jodi Hall, thank you and welcome.
From the Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions, we have Linda Silas.
I will begin by recognizing Terry Lake, our good friend and frequent visitor to this committee and others, for five minutes, and then we'll go to the next. Then we'll have a round of questions.
It's over to you, Terry.
