Thank you, Mr. Laberge.
Ms. Maisonneuve, thank you for the work you do in the early childhood field and at the Conseil scolaire du Nord‑Ouest. I myself was a school board trustee in northern Ontario, so I understand the challenges associated with large geographic areas, the shortage of teachers and funding based on the number of students, which penalizes you.
I would also like to hear what you have to say about training early childhood educators. What is your capacity? What are your challenges? How can the federal government help you to have more teachers and more francophone students in early childhood centres?
