Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you so much, Minister, for being here with us for two hours and sharing two hours of your time. We've covered a broad swath of questions, so I really do appreciate your insight and your sharing your expertise and answers with us.
According to the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business, indigenous people are creating new businesses at nine times the Canadian average. There is a tremendous amount of potential there. I know that PSPC has been doing a lot of good work to improve diversity of indigenous businesses in the supply chain of the federal government.
What are some specific challenges you have faced while working on increasing indigenous diversity there, and what are some positive stories as well?
