Thank you.
I hope the sound is better. I had to change platforms at IT's recommendation.
I'd like to thank the witnesses for accepting our invitation to appear before the committee. Their testimonies are great.
My questions are for Chief Haymond.
I have several questions for you about the shortcomings of the programs put in place for First Nations. In fact, I have read that in the National Housing Strategy, the 2017-18 budgets provided $600 million over three years, specifically to support housing on First Nations reserves. I understand from your testimony that these amounts are clearly insufficient. Among the gaps, you mentioned chronic underfunding. I would like to know if you are seeing any improvements.
You said that we need new ways of doing things in terms of governance. You said that one of the issues is that 20% of the need is for migration of members who live off reserve.
Could you tell us more about these issues?
Thank you very much.
