Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank my colleagues again for your support on some of this really important work, especially, Mr. Dong. Thank you for those questions. It really helps to expand my time in many ways.
I want to get right into it. Deputy Minister Quan-Watson, I want to be able to give you some time to respond to some of the questions that were asked.
You mentioned that there were two groups that were consulted in relation to the nutrition north Canada subsidy program. I want to know which groups they are. Was that prior to COVID or during COVID?
