That's fine.
Thank you.
Thank you very much for being here today. I really appreciated and enjoyed the conversation about some of the challenges you face as a former superintendent of all the French schools in Nova Scotia. With the minority status, of course, I know there are a lot of similarities and differences.
I would have to agree with my colleague, Mr. Clarke, that it's not ideal to be comparing. It's looking at the challenges in your community, especially if you are going to compare with Ontario. Throw in Nova Scotia and see where you get in the comparison. It's a lot worse, because of the support in Ontario.
I'd like to basically understand child care better, so some of my questions will be focused on education. If I get an extra second I'll go to economic development, but in terms of education and child care, when the kids arrive at your English schools, do they already speak English? In Nova Scotia, for example, 80% of the kids who arrive in French schools do not speak French.
I'm trying to understand if there's any funding that you receive to support your community in child care.
