Good afternoon. Welcome to the 144th meeting of the Standing Committee on the Status of Women. Today's meeting is in public.
Today we'll continue our study on the treatment of women within the Department of National Defence. For this meeting I am pleased to welcome as individuals Dr. Karen Breeck, a retired military physician; Professor Grazia Scoppio, associate professor, Canadian Defence Academy and Royal Military College of Canada; and from It's Just 700, Marie-Claude Gagnon, who is a founder.
I'll turn the floor now over to Marie-Claude.
You have seven minutes.
