Thank you very much.
Thank you to the witnesses for your work today, and your work always.
I want to focus on two areas. First, you probably think I know this, but I don't. It's just a moot question that I'm asking. It's about the Canada fund for local initiatives, the CFLI, and how it works. How much of it is directed by the local heads of mission, and how much of it is directed centrally, based on mission?
I looked at the minister's mandate letter, and it says to increase the annual investment in the CFLI to help with our work with the feminist agenda, the LBGTQ2 activists and human rights defenders. Can you explain a little bit about that for me, and what we as parliamentarians can do? I think it's a good fund. Is there something we can do to help you get more money?
