Thank you.

My last question comes from the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs and Chief Walter Wastesicoot from the Keewatin Tribal Council. I was told that the Jordan's principle process is too slow. There's $8 million yet to be given out. This is to be doled out over two years, but your staff are too slow.

Can you tell us why the process is too slow? How are you trying to speed up the process?
