Thank you, Madam Chair.
I would also like to thank Chief Louie for coming here to tell us about the situation on his reserve.
First of all, Chief Louie, I have to say that when I read the information about your reserve, I was pleasantly surprised to see that your community boasts a dynamic economic and a range of services.
If I understand correctly, your reserve is located in the Okanagan Valley on land that is fairly conducive to development. Your reserve covers approximately 5,300 acres and your community has 434 members.
There is also mention of 8,000 non-natives. Do they also live on the reserve?
