Thank you, Mike, for that question and those comments.
It was really good to be at the table with the NWT premier, as well as the partners from NWT, several weeks ago. I think you were there as well. We had a comprehensive discussion on a range of issues, especially relating to modern treaty holders. Through them, we have been able to introduce legislation, Bill C-77, on the commissioner for modern treaty implementation. I believe there is progress being made.
We are in discussions on issues, such as education with the Tłı̨chǫ government, that are going to be critical for self-determination over issues such as education. The challenge is that we have not been able to land and complete a treaty in recent years. Much work has been done over the years, but there are still elements that we need to complete.
I want to underscore and say again for the record that the comprehensive land claims policy is not something that we are currently implementing. It is a very different conversation when we talk about modern treaties right now. We've moved away from that, and we are in an era where we are at RIRSD tables, where rights recognition is a cornerstone
I want Ms. Gideon to have a chance to add to that in terms of the comprehensive land claims policy, because I have said it on a number of occasions and maybe we have not been very understanding of each other.
I'll ask Val to add some light to this.
