Thank you very much, Chair.
Mr. Bourbonniere, I have two questions that I want to focus on, but first I want to thank you for what you do. The work done by you and by groups like yours across the country has always intrigued me. In all my years of policing, it's something I always supported.
With your background in front-line service to the community, I'm sure you have many success stories of people from marginalized communities who have embraced the opportunities they were provided with and have turned their lives around. You told us of one during your opening remarks, and I thank you for that.
In all those circumstances, from your experience, are there any common themes or experiences or opportunities that you can explain to the committee that are consistent and necessary to the success of the individuals you're trying to reach on the street?
