Welcome to the 81^st meeting of the Standing Committee on Official Languages. Today is Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Pursuant to Standing Order 108, today we are studying second official language immersion programs in Canada.

Joining us this afternoon are Ms. Sims from the Université de Saint-Boniface,

and then Mr. Young and Mr. Sokalski of the Winnipeg School Division.

Welcome to all three of you.

I understand that you want to take your 10 minutes each, combine them into one 20-minute presentation, and speak on behalf of your two respective organizations. Without further ado, you may begin with your opening 20-minute statement.
