Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, first of all, there are no national standards. Education is an exclusive jurisdiction of each province and territory. What we have agreed with Human Resources Development Canada is to conduct tests so each jurisdiction can have a snapshot of how their curriculum is performing in comparison to other jurisdictions in Canada. As I understand it, there was significant opposition among jurisdictions to participate if the results could be used to single out schools or regions or individuals and how they were performing. Therefore, the Ministers of Education from across Canada would only agree to the program if it were run on a broad base. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
