Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just wanted to start by making a quick comment on the early childhood and making note of many of the good programs that are happening, and obviously there are plans to expand the Head Start program, and partnerships with Yukon and so on are not addressing the early childhood part or the early years part of early childhood development. I just want to make clear that there is a difference there.
The other thing is that early childhood education and child care are, strictly speaking in terms of what we’re talking about, not early childhood development. So when reference is made to that as early childhood development, I think there’s starting to be a bit of a disconnect between what Members on this side of the House are saying and what the Minister is saying. I’m just wondering if the Minister could confirm his understanding that we see a difference in early childhood development and some of these other things that are early childhood education. They’re obviously contributing to early childhood but they’re not necessarily the focus. Thank you.
