That's a very important question. It's unfortunately a long-standing experience that a lot of our community members continue to have.
The one example I can use that is from Nunavut specifically, is there is a specific article, article 32, of the Nunavut agreement that stipulates the requirement of not only the Government of Canada but also the Government of Nunavut to ensure Inuit participation in the review and development of socially and culturally related policies, which also includes education, health and justice.
It is not necessarily my place in my current capacity to intervene on those. There are very clear parameters in which the responsibilities lie within the governments but also with the representative organizations. I am fully expecting that, similar to our previous conversation, the dialogue will come to me in different ways, so I could maybe be a conduit back into the Government of Canada to highlight whether or not there are specific concerns on that front. If it is shared with me, I feel that there is a responsibility I have to bring that back into the Government of Canada.
