Thanks. I'll take it back to a really practical example. We're talking about the Mackenzie River Basin Board and some bilateral agreements. The governments in the Northwest Territories and Alberta have a bilateral agreement for our shared waters, and one of the parts of that agreement is that we'll value and use traditional or indigenous knowledge on par with western science. It's easy to commit to that, but it's harder to actually put it into practice, and we've had this agreement since 2015. We're only now getting to the point where we're really taking the steps that are needed to get there. What it has involved is first building an ethical space with indigenous government representative partners, to have those conversations, and then working at their pace and their scale to understand what the tools are. We started off with the idea of a framework, but it's morphed into something else.
