Okay, no pressure.

Thank you, Minister and officials.

TRC completed that seven-year mandate with roughly $60 million, and I think we all agree it was very complicated. They did some fine work over seven years with $60 million.

However, on the missing and murdered indigenous women and girls, wow, Minister, your pockets are empty. Three months ago, you added $38 million more.

It has been a disaster. I have talked to one of the people from Saskatoon who was on the committee. They couldn't wait to get off the committee.

Now we're up to, I guess, $92 million and counting. This can't be good. Who wears this?
