[Inuktitut text interpreted as follows:]

Thank you for coming.

If I can, I'll start by saying this bill is geared to first nations. It's not geared to the Métis and it's not geared to the Inuit community. That is my understanding.

It will impact first nations governments. How many first nations government bodies will be impacted by Bill C-61?
