Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank the witnesses, both in the room and those joining us remotely.
I have a few questions, but I'll start with the representatives of the Fédération des communautés francophones et acadienne du Canada, since they're here in person.
First, I'd like to understand the situation in Canada, generally speaking.
What are Canada's needs in terms of francophone immigration? Has the FCFA considered the differences between the needs of our minority communities and those of other communities? Are these differences reflected in our immigration policy and criteria? I'm thinking of types of employment, for example. If Ms. Ashton were here today, we could both advocate having people working in early childhood settings, for example.
Do your members across Canada also share their needs with you?
