Thank you very much.
I would like to welcome the panel here. Thank you for coming.
I have three questions. They might seem a little scattered, but hopefully I'll have time to bring them together at the end.
My first question is for the deputy minister.
We've been seeing in the House lately a Conservative attack on DEI. Could you take this opportunity and talk about DEI and its importance? As Canadians, our strength is our diversity and our mosaic. As a former educator and high school principal, I know the importance that DEI has and its role for our youth in how they enter the job force.
I would like to give you the opportunity today to talk about DEI, please.
