It's not about coming to a consensus on which businesses qualify as indigenous, whether we're talking about first nations, the Métis or Inuit. The problem is in agreeing on the best body to manage the list. That's what the discussions with the partners are about right now.
I think every partner wants to manage a list. However, if each partner has a different list and there are a lot of lists overall, it will be more difficult to achieve the program's objectives. Minister Duclos may have a different opinion, but I think that, if there are 10 or 12 lists, it will be more difficult for departments in terms of procurement.
We have to find an approach that is transparent and very firm, but that is also easy for client departments.
