National Chief, thank you for attending here today. It's a pleasure to have you here. As Ontario's only first nation member of Parliament, I welcome you here today. I have a million questions, but I have to stay within my five minutes.
In my area, I represent Grand Council Treaty 3 and also the Robinson-Superior community of Fort William First Nation. I want to get back to the nation-to-nation process, because I'm still not clear in terms of where AFN sees their fitting with helping organizations like Grand Council Treaty 3 or the individual communities.
I understand that essentially you're saying you want to leave it up to the communities and the individuals, and if they want a group, then so be it. Where does AFN fit in terms of helping us, in terms of the federal government, and helping the communities to get started in this nation-to-nation process, or whatever process they decide to do?
