I would love to have a conversation with you about how we ourselves here and the media can spotlight those tremendous, uplifting, positive stories about tremendous indigenous businesses and success stories. I would love to work with you on that.
Also, I understand the work of this committee in wanting to strengthen the program. I just want to quote the minister here, Minister Hajdu, who stated, “We're working with indigenous partners to think through a better way, perhaps even at some point turning over maintenance of the list to indigenous partners.” I wanted to get it on the record that we are working with first nations, Métis, Inuit—our indigenous partners—to make sure that we are improving this program so that it serves our entire Canadian community and indigenous partners.
Thank you.
