Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome to our witnesses this morning.
I don't know what is the most challenging here, to try to deliver your message in five minutes or for us to try to ask you questions in seven minutes.
I will go first to Mr. Wilson.
Mr. Wilson, actually this week I met with John Paul and Chief Lawrence Paul from Millbrook, and the main issue we discussed was trying to utilize the talents of those 500 to 600 first nations children who are at university, in post-secondary education, in community college in Atlantic Canada, in Nova Scotia. I don't know if you could just briefly comment on the importance of that group to be the role model and the mentors for opening up the jobs and the marketplace to first nations. There is a huge workforce there that is desperately needed, especially in Atlantic Canada, and it has great potential to pay tremendous dividends to first nations.
