Mr. Speaker, I am Canadian, and I am sure everyone is proud they are here today discussing important things for Canadians.

I will quickly finish my question.

I would like to acknowledge the work that has been done on this issue. I would like my colleague to talk about the importance of early child care in Canada. That is what is important here.

Francophones across Canada have missed out a lot of opportunities and have been assimilated. It is because they did not have the opportunity to receive preschool education in French.

I would like my colleague to say how happy we are today to be working together to make the major changes that needed to be made.
