Hello everyone.
Before starting the meeting, I want to officially wish a happy birthday to our colleague, John Nater.
Today we're studying the issues related to the enumeration of rights-holders under section 23 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
We're pleased to be meeting this morning with Jean-Pierre Corbeil, the assistant director of the social and aboriginal statistic division at Statistics Canada. Welcome, Mr. Corbeil.
We'll listen to your presentation. You'll have ten minutes to speak. Afterward, as usual, the committee members can ask questions and provide comments.
The floor is yours.
