Thank you, Chair.
I'm going to start by perhaps answering in a small way some of your concerns about funding. I note that in terms of helping to implement Bill C-46, the provinces and territories can access up to $81 million for the purchasing of and training on oral fluid drug screening devices and training for field personnel for field sobriety testing and drug recognition expertise and so forth.
Provinces and territories will be responsible for distributing this funding to municipal and indigenous police forces within their jurisdictions. Beyond that, I think the funding concerns are the taxation and sharing schemes and are certainly beyond my scope. I think those are things that you're probably best advised to address with the new Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations, as well as the Minister of Indigenous Services.
In terms of concerns that we are being rushed, I've heard this from a number of sources, of course, but from my experience in project management, it is important to have target dates. If you don't have target dates, things just slide out into infinity. It is important to have these dates to work towards, and I have found that it helps people to put the resources in place to try to meet these dates. I think they will be challenging, but I think we have to do our best to do it.
In terms of being ready, what aspects are most concerning to you? What aspects of this legislation do you think are going to be the most difficult for you to meet?
