Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to our guests for being here today.
I'd like to point out that the name of the ministry we scrutinize here at this committee has changed recently from Indigenous Affairs and Northern Development to Northern Affairs. I think that's symptomatic that it's no longer concerned about development. There be dragons in that area, and we need to deal with them.
One of the things we hear of a lot is the timelines that concern getting an extension. You've addressed that well. Mike, you talked about your having a letter from the minister saying that she was prepared to work on a collaborative development of them.
Has any of that work been undertaken? Beyond that letter, have you been in communication with the minister at all?
