There are two frameworks: one with the provinces and territories and the other with the Indigenous communities. The provinces and territories will decide how to distribute the funds based on an action plan that they send us every two years. With the Indigenous communities it is more autonomous, but there are still principles that guide that initiative and that were developed with the Indigenous partners.
I can tell you about my most recent experience, two years ago, with the Manitoba Métis Federation. It has already opened 12 early childhood centres and is planning to open four more, for a total of 200 more spaces in Manitoba. I was in St. Eustache, a Métis community, where I visited the early childhood centre. Half of the 40 or so spaces it provides are reserved for Métis children and the other half are open to other communities. The staff do truly excellent work, based on learning the language and culture. The learning really is based on their Indigenous traditions.
