Thank you, Mr. Melillo.

Thank you, Chair.

My question will be for Garry Bailey, the president of the Northwest Territory Métis Nation.

It's an honour to have you here today, Garry.

Since our conversation is obviously about reconciliation, I have an article from Cabin Radio that was written just after the 2021 election. It quotes you as saying:

It's getting our position moving forward so that we can move on with our own economic opportunities and have management over our land recognized and our rights affirmed.

Could you please explain?
