Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I am going to note that I am going to speak about residential schools, so I just want to give everyone a heads-up about that.
Today is World Tuberculosis Day, and I see many of my colleagues wearing a ribbon. It's a day of reflection. I speak of how tuberculosis was used as a weapon in Canada to support genocidal policies to infect first nations children in residential schools. That's where I come to this committee from today, from that space.
We have a lot of work to do in Canada to end ongoing discrimination against first nations, Inuit and Métis people. I would ask the witnesses today what programs and budget items can be shared with this committee in the main estimates that address the needs of first nations, Inuit and Métis.
