Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I'd like to thank each of the presenters for being here with us today.
Ms. Day, I apologize. I had another committee beforehand, so I did miss part of your presentation, but I'd like to thank all the rest for being here and sharing their thoughts and ideas with us.
We know that this issue has been studied by about three other committees as well. We felt strongly, because we're the Standing Committee on the Status of Women, that we needed to hear the issues here firsthand, as well as study the reports from the other committees.
We've heard certainly a diversity of ideas here today. We've heard some things that were a bit surprising in some ways. We've heard that perhaps the CCP wasn't the be-all and end-all, but it did serve a purpose. We've heard that it was not accountable, that some people who they may have felt should have got funding didn't, that it funded only narrow views.
But the thing that I think I heard today that intrigued me the most was from Ms. Atcheson. I think you said that perhaps we need to separate the principles from the details of the design—if I captured correctly what I thought I heard you say. Could you please elaborate some more on that?
