Thank you all for your presentations.
I'm going to start off with Ms. Sayers. First, I'd like to acknowledge that I'm from the traditional territory of the Passamaquoddy tribe in St. Andrews, New Brunswick.
I'm not sure whether we met last week at the EDAC conference, but one comment I'd like to make before I give my question is that during that conference, when I was the host MP, it came out very strongly that the chiefs wanted to be involved in consultation. We're very pleased as a committee that you are here today to consult with us, because as a nation this is very critical for all of us; it's important.
If we could go back a year and a half or two years and there were more of a discussion and input from the first nations community, what would you want to put forward?
