I'm really glad you brought up Community Futures. Before politics, I attended a meeting in Thunder Bay where Community Futures was working with the NAN, the Nishnawbe Aski Nation. The opportunity for mentorship and the opportunity for training was there.

Has the federal government picked up on that? Could we include in our report that the federal government consider partnering with Community Futures and first nations or indigenous people?
