We have not sought out becoming an intermediary or playing as a fiscal agent for a number of funders, whether it's the provincial government here or the foundations here. They came to us and said, “You are delivering this initiative, and we think this is an opportunity that we can leverage.” That is how we have utilized it.
Another thing that I want the committee to know is that on the western side, Alberta has the third-largest Black population and the fastest-growing Black population in the country. It has the youngest Black population in the country. There are quite a number of complexities that come under this. This informs how Black grassroots organizations and groups establish and organize themselves, wanting to respond and provide services for those nuances of complexity for new immigrants.
It's quite different from the eastern side of the country, because of that. Established social connections and social capital exist there, which don't exist in the west.
