Thank you.
Thank you both for being here. It's good to see you again.
I'll start with you, Ms. Johnston. You mentioned, at some point in your remarks, the steady decline in overall government funding for both universities and colleges. I imagine that has a more direct impact on smaller institutions, such as colleges.
Over the last 30 years, that decline in funding has driven increases in tuition, so students are having a harder time. It's driven colleges and universities to look for other sources of income, so we've seen an increase in international students. I was surprised to learn that last year, students from India put more into the Ontario post-secondary education system than did the Province of Ontario. That's unbelievable.
I am just wondering if you could comment on this, I think, insidious trend of governments of all levels in Canada causing a decline in funding for post-secondary education, when that is what is going to drive our economy in the future and help us face the challenges. Maybe both of you can comment on the effect of that on colleges and institutes.
