I would say in the very near future. The challenge, as I indicated in some of my answers to your colleagues, is that we had hoped that we would get to a place of consensus. We've had indigenous partners studying the next steps on what to do, as you know, for quite some time. In fact, they provided a report. Even the report itself is conflicted in terms of any consensus.
I think the next step, for me, is to contemplate how we ensure that we set up an independent approach somehow with voices of all of the distinctive groups on that independent agency, for lack of a better word, that will then begin that hard work of wrangling through what the criteria are. I would say that it will be challenging, as you know, because there are a number of different scenarios that different people have a variety of perspectives on.
To me, the allegations over the weekend, combined with the ongoing attention on the indigenous business directory, means that it is high time for indigenous people to control for themselves the space of identifying what an indigenous business is and what qualifies someone to say that it is an indigenous business. Then we can work with PSPC to make sure that the targets are accessible to those businesses.
As I said, it's important that we have an approach that partners feel confident in.
