Thank you, Madam Chair.
I would like to ask a question, but I would also like to make a motion, with the indulgence of the committee.
It's been pointed out to me that I may not have received the GBA report that I previously requested because I didn't formalize it as a motion. I would like to begin with that, and simply say that the committee for the status of women secure the finance department report outlining the GBA analysis of the 2007 federal budget.
I will send that up.
My question has to do with women's unpaid work. We haven't talked about that very much today and about how important unpaid work and caregiving activities are when analyzing a budget. Has Canada developed the measures we need? What would those measures be in terms of creating a budget that did indeed take into account unpaid work and the caregiving that women provide?
