Good afternoon. Thank you for this invitation to appear before you to participate in your study on immersion programs. I am very pleased to be here with you.
As you know, I am not a product of immersion, but 4 out of the 10 members of our board of directors are. I have therefore invited Ms. Calina Ellwand to help me with today's presentation. She could not unfortunately be away from work all day long, so she is with us thanks to the videoconference system.
Before going any further and giving Canadian Youth for French's opinion on the topic you are studying, I would like to turn the floor over to Calina, so she can give you her thoughts.
