Thank you, Madam Chair; and to all the witnesses, thank you for your passion. This has certainly been an education process for us on the committee and a topic that has been so interesting.
I live in a very rural riding, and there are many similarities with indigenous people for people in rural ridings.
Louise, I have a question for you. How has the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the practices of midwives all across the country, but especially in rural areas? Do you have a comment or two on that?
