Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I thank the minister and his team of officials for being with us. It's always a pleasure to meet them here at the committee.
Minister, first of all, I'd like to hear your comments about what's been happening recently.
Last Monday, while our committee was conducting its study on the funding of post-secondary educational institutions, one of your government colleagues addressed disrespectful words to witnesses. It took him four days to start apologizing. Do you find that acceptable?
