All of us collectively have to see this. We're different parties that bring different perspectives to it. For far too long, the former Department of Indian Affairs occupied all of the space in deciding what was the right thing in the future historically. As we move forward, when we work with Inuit communities, Métis communities and certainly with first nations we must understand how those communities understand their future. We have to understand what they want the relationship to be in the delivery of services or not or how they want to engage with us in the types of agreements that we would negotiate with them. Understanding those pieces is critical so that we get it right in the way that we did not in the past.
