According to my Blackberry, the time is now 11:01, so I call the 52nd meeting of the Standing Committee on the Status of Women to order.
We are continuing our study on women in skilled trades and science, technology, engineering and mathematics occupations, and what an interesting study it is. We are pleased to have with us, today, Alison Hale, from Statistics Canada. She is the director of the Labour Statistics Division.
Ms. Hale, we are eager to hear what you have to say. You have 10 minutes for your presentation, after which we'll get into questions and answers. Over to you.
