Yes, and I think the nuance there is that we have to make sure that we are providing the support to indigenous people and communities to do this themselves, as opposed to what we've perhaps done in the past, which was to dictate a stylized version of what that represents and perhaps what seizes the imagination of non-indigenous people.
The independent Canada Council for the Arts does amazing work in making sure that indigenous voices are represented. The indigenous languages commission has done a great job over the last.... Again, they're independent from me, but we do fund them through the portfolio organizations in making sure that they are advocating for the revitalization of indigenous languages, which comes and is expressed through the arts.
I'd say the indigenous screen board has done amazing work, with productions that members have heard of, like North of North, which is now into its second season and is doing great, and it is done in their own way, in their own voices.
As well, there are other envelopes, which I could probably spend more than five minutes on. They exemplify exactly what you're getting at, which is indigenous people using this moment in time to leverage their own voices and show Canadians what they're capable of.
