Thank you, Mr. Chair, and my thanks to our presenters.
I am a visitor to this committee. I find it interesting because we're studying pretty much the same challenges on the natural resources committee, where we're doing a complete study on Canada's north. The problems you're talking about are very familiar.
Suncor has built relationships with first nations communities for many years. Everyone talks about the socio-economic benefits of getting first nations communities involved with local resource development. But simply hiring a number of first nations people at a wage they probably never saw before is not going to be a huge benefit if they don't have the skills to help their community deal with the new-found wealth.
I know Suncor has been involved in forging relationships and developing a workforce. Have you seen this challenge of new-found money going into communities where there wasn't a proper preparation for that intake of funding? It can create other problems if it's not a complete package that puts all the benefits together and makes them work.
