Welcome, everybody. Let's get the meeting going.
We are at the indigenous and northern affairs committee of Canada. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are conducting a study of long-term care on reserve.
We are actually meeting on the unceded territory of the Algonquin people, a process we always recognize because we have really, I think, sincerely started the process of understanding, recognizing truths, and moving to reconciliation. It's a bit slow in our process of history, but it's always good that we're here.
Presenters will have 10 minutes. When the presentations are done, we will allow for questioning, and that will take up the full hour.
We have Dakota, File Hills, and then Driftpile.
We have three presentations.
We're going to start with Dakota Oyate Lodge. We have Della Mansoff, the director. She is all the way from the great province of Manitoba.
Welcome. You have 10 minutes. I'll give you a signal when you're getting close.
