Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Welcome to the representatives of the Department of Indian Affairs. I think your presentation described the programs you offer very well. As was mentioned earlier, the people in Nunavut we visited gave us a clear example of what a success story means.
The challenge of education is important for young people. Next week, several members of the committee will be going to Mashteuiatsh for the First Nations' Socio-economic Forum. Education will be one of the four themes discussed. As you briefly mentioned, Ms. Cram, defining the problems properly is one of the challenges that arise. I think there are many reports indeed, but here we're talking about statistics that enable us to assess the needs with a view to the budget.
You talked about the challenges in collecting data, for example, the difficulty of determining the number of graduates within communities or translating the existing needs in financial terms.
Can you tell us more about those challenges?
