Good morning everyone and thank you for your confidence in me.
This morning, we have the opportunity to resume where we had left off at our last meeting. We were talking about the effect of delays in approvals and disbursements on organizations funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage.
Somewhat by chance, we have with us here this morning representatives of the Fédération des communautés francophones et acadienne du Canada, Ms. Marie-France Kenny and Ms. Suzanne Bossé.
So, if committee members so wish, we could invite them to tell us about the situation with the Department of Canadian Heritage regarding disbursements and their consequences for organizations.
Do all the committee members wish to so proceed?
