Canadian Heritage committee  Clearly, it shows there's more to do.

Canadian Heritage committee  However, would you say or would you agree that the government surpassed the goals that it set for 2021, its connectivity goals?

Canadian Heritage committee  Right. Since 2021 the total number of households connected in rural Canada increased from 62% to 69%. Given the recent global pandemic and the short period of time, would you say that this is a significant increase?

Canadian Heritage committee  You would say that no, you don't think it's a significant increase in the connectivity of rural Canada. You would like to see more. You wouldn't consider it significant. I think that is what I get from your answer. Connectivity in indigenous households has increased by 5% since

Canadian Heritage committee  I would note that since 2015, about 2.2 million Canadian households have received access to better and faster Internet. On the Government of Canada's website for the national strategy to connect all Canadians, by the end of 2022, 93.5% of Canadians were connected to high-speed I

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you very much.

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you, Chair. I want to thank our guest, Ms. Hogan, for being here to answer our questions today. I would like to ask about the connecting families program. This is a program that provides low-income families and seniors with high-speed Internet packages for $20 a month. Y

Canadian Heritage committee  As you said, it's a more recent program, and that brings up an interesting point. I note that the audit covers the time period from July 2018 to January 2023, but it only has 2021 connectivity data. Could you explain that for us, please?

Canadian Heritage committee  Okay. The focus of the audit was to determine whether the Government of Canada has improved access to affordable and high-speed Internet in rural and remote regions of the country. Would you say there has been improvement?

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you, Ms. Crooks. I'm not sure you have enough time to answer my next question fulsomely. We've spoken about this already today a bit, but I still don't fully understand why there has been such a disparity in the incomes of the men players and the women players. Perhaps you

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you, Chair. I would like to echo some of my colleagues and thank Ms. Crooks very much for appearing here today and also for her amazing contributions to our country and our culture. We really appreciate that.

Canadian Heritage committee  I would like to ask you about something that I've been curious about since we had the women's team appear before us at committee. Shortly before they appeared before us, a press release came out from Canada Soccer that detailed a bit about the proposed collective agreement. I tho

Canadian Heritage committee  Okay. Thank you. You did talk in your opening statement about ethical leadership and how it's necessary for good governance. You are also—I looked at your biography—a founding member of the IOC Ethics Committee. Would you tell us about what it means to have ethics in governance

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you. I think you've expressed to us at this committee today some of the processes you've implemented to try to make Canada Soccer more transparent and accountable. I don't know if there's anything you want to add to that, but I'd also like to ask you, because this has been
