I call this meeting to order.
We are dealing today, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), with a study on increasing the participation of women in non-traditional occupations.
Today as witnesses we have the Public Service Alliance of Canada, with Patty Ducharme, national executive vice-president, executive office; and Allison Pilon, human rights and employment. We also have the Canadian Coalition of Women in Engineering, Science, Trades and Technology, Hiromi Matsui. I want to thank you for coming and welcome you.
By now, Ms. Ducharme, you should know the rules extremely well: ten minutes for presentation, and then we will have a question and answer period. So, Patty, will you be presenting, or will you share your time?
