Your answer is quite enlightening. You mentioned that doing business with the federal government and submitting a bid entails significant costs, and that's difficult for small businesses, which also have to provide dozens of pages of documents when they respond to requests for proposals. Thank you for confirming that.
The Botler AI situation also revealed that the contracting policy with Indigenous businesses can quite easily be circumvented by using a business owned in whole or in part by an Indigenous person as a front. I know that you don't deal directly with the Government of Canada, as you just said, but rather with companies. Nevertheless, you have some expertise in procedures.
How can Canada ensure that there are real benefits in the communities where Indigenous businesses are located? Could you give us your outside perspective to enlighten us a little?
