We wanted to ensure that there was a regional approach to this as the communities banded together at the beginning of this pandemic.
I really would like to see some sort of a federal response to bring all first nations, Métis communities, Métis governments and municipalities together, as we here in the northwest believe we have the ability to create a very strong regional emergency response team. We also have the resources and people to work with the existing Saskatchewan protection agency as well.
I would like to thank you for the opportunity to present this and give you a ground-level idea of how we responded.
