Thank you, Madam Chair.

I'd like to welcome our guests. Thank you for taking the time to come here today. I have some questions for each of you.

I'll start with the Status of Women first.

I was happy to hear in your opening remarks that there were no claims of sexual harassment found against Status of Women Canada since 2005. Do you include in these numbers the use of informal resolution mechanisms, grievances, and human rights tribunals in your general statistics on incidents of sexual harassment in the workplace? If not, could you indicate how many cases were referred to these alternate and informal resolution options during that same time period?
