Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
We know the honourable minister was an economist in his previous life, so I'm going to challenge him to use word “economy” to be able to give the best answers he can using the fewest words possible, so I can get to the most questions.
The Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada is requesting about $760 million for the specific claim settlement fund, which is used to provide compensation to first nations in accordance with settlement agreements. How many settlement agreements are included in this funding request, using the word “economy”?
