Thank you very much.
Good morning, everyone.
Since an example from my riding was brought up, I think I should say something. I've indeed been to the community. I've been in the houses you talked about, Jean. I've talked with the chief and talked with the then band manager, as well as with the mayor of the adjacent community. This story is a lot more complicated than how you've described it. It usually is. Indeed, there was a budget for remediation. There is a budget for remediation. Indeed, there are other issues here.
Capacity and governance is always part of the equation. Certainly I'm aware of things we're trying to do on that front as well. I think that's vitally important.
On a national scale, the INAC negotiations and dealings to implement the first nations child and family services program has to deal with all of the provinces, the territories, and all of the first nations and their delivery agencies. I wonder if you could describe the scope of that, because I think it would help to portray why these comprehensive tripartite agreements are so important.
