Ms. Casimer, when this bill was introduced, you said that it was probably one of the most significant pieces of legislation for indigenous peoples in a generation, because it will improve the situation of indigenous children and youth by focusing on strengthening families and keeping families together instead of intervening and separating them. We are coming to the end of the legislative process on this bill. Do you think we have taken the right direction by putting the best interests of the children first?
