Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My name is Daniel Vandal, and I am the MP for Saint-Boniface—Saint-Vital, a riding in the city of Winnipeg. I am a Métis member of Parliament and I am proud to be a member of this committee.
I would like to start by congratulating our witnesses for their commitment to education in their community and to our language.
I really appreciate what you do.
The matters that we are discussing are very broad, and we do not have much time to discuss them. We only have six minutes. I would like to give the floor back to you so that you can provide the members of the Standing Committee on Official Languages with more information in order to help us with our report. We will be presenting the report to the House of Commons so that the government can respond.
What advice do you have for us? What message do you want us to give to the department and to the government?
We have five minutes. We will start with the representative of the Edmonton Public School Board.
