Ms. Lorie Thompson (Legal counsel, Brokenhead Ojibway Nation) at the Indigenous and Northern Affairs Committee

[Witness speaks in Cree]

Good morning. My name is Lorie Thompson. I am here assisting Brokenhead Ojibway Nation with their presentation this morning.

With respect to your question, I'll make it very simple and very brief: It's through a renewal of vows in the treaty relationship that was entered into.
