Welcome to the Standing Committee on Official Languages. This is Tuesday, March 25, 2014, and we are holding our 15th hearing.
We are here pursuant to Standing Order 108 to carry out a study on the economic situation of Canada's minority linguistic communities.
Today we will be hearing three groups of witnesses. Mr. Béland and Mr. Murphy represent Co-operatives and Mutuals Canada. Ms. Bossé and Ms. Kenny represent the Fédération des communautés francophones et acadienne du Canada.
From Youth Employment Services, we have Mr. Aylen and Madam Unger, who are representing that organization.
Without further ado, we'll begin with Co-operatives and Mutuals Canada.
