I think one of the primary ways the federal government can support the development of this institute is through its financial support and endorsement of this organization. It is being designed by indigenous organizations that are coming together.
It's truly a historic time for our people. I referenced in my opening statement the national indigenous economic strategy for Canada, which in itself is a historic document, because it's indigenous people holding the pen for the first time, stating with clarity what we want. And if we look at this indigenous-led procurement institute, this is a continuation of that exercise, with us stating decisively that this is what we want to move forward together.
Thank you.
