I call to order this 69th meeting of the Standing Committee on Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development.
For the first hour today we have a witness coming to us via video conference from Winnipeg. He will be with us for the first hour. We already have panellists for the second hour joining us. They will be here to answer questions in the second hour.
Mr. Kinew, we'll turn it over to you for the first 10 minutes, and then we'll have some questions for you.
