Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to talk about the two motions for which I introduced the notices earlier.
Let me summarize the first motion. Its intent is to invite the Minister of Families, Children and Social Development to come and speak to the Commissioner of Official Languages' report, entitled “Early Childhood: Fostering the Vitality of Francophone Minority Communities”. The goal is to have him tell us about the progress made on his announcements regarding early childhood.
Agreements have already been reached. It's good news to hear that we are able to sign agreements with the provinces with a view to investing in early childhood. That's very important in light of the Commissioner of Official Languages' report.
I think it would be nice to hear from the minister on this particular topic, especially since early childhood is a significant part of Graham Fraser's report and in light of everything we have heard recently.
