Obviously there is always going to need to be public and private sector interests. Our nations need to find ways to be participatory to help sustain communities. One of the obvious ones will be in the area of health, possibly in education, but to ensure that there is an economic footprint and opportunity in our communities, that's going to be really key.
Let me speak to the issue of exemption in taxes. I will impress upon the committee again that there needs to be immediate discussion, not just provincially but federally as well, with regard to tax exemption as well as what instruments will need to be explored to ensure harmonization could occur. Again, I'll just use the example of the HST and PST exemption in Ontario. First nations are exempt from paying provincial sales tax. That will be on the table. It will be a consistent expectation from our first nations communities. How do we move beyond that? Again, those are my comments.
