Thank you.
In the spirit of co-operation, if I finish my questions early.... I will try to be somewhat precise.
First of all, I want to congratulate all the members of the coalition. Back in the nineties I participated; I sat at the In-SHUCK-ch and N'Quatqua treaty table as they were working through their process. That was 1995, and they're still not at final agreement. I can just imagine the enormous energy and challenge it has been for all of you to move through this process. I guess to some degree it's a little bit disappointing, because I think it was always the dream that once we got there, we were there. In my riding, the northern part of the Secwepemc is in process and the southern area is not, but hopefully it's not all bad.
Can you perhaps share what some of the benefits have been so that people from the communities that I represent are hearing...? I mean, I think I would be turning away from the process right now. Can you just share a couple of positive things that have come out of this process?
