Good morning, everyone, and thank you for having us here.
I represent 23 first nations communities here in Alberta from Treaty 8. We want to look at a different process for first nations people in our area, and we're hoping the presentation to the finance committee will help us look at a different partnership in the way we look at things.
One of the things we look at is not being a tax burden to Canadian society. With this presentation from an economist, I hope we are going to look at it on a more equitable basis.
I'll turn it over to Darcy.
