Absolutely.
What we saw throughout the audit was a shift in the department's focus from bilateral agreements between provinces, third parties and the federal government to multilateral agreements. That's where the first nations communities also need to be at the table in order to ensure that it's clear what the roles and responsibilities are of each party during an emergency, and that the communities have an expectation of the services they should receive. What we found in our audit is while money and time were devoted to that, no multilateral agreements have been established at this point.
We noted some progress in British Columbia, as you mentioned, where a memorandum of understanding has been established with the province. That is just the first step.
Again, it is about having clear roles during emergencies, so that communities know what they can expect, should they need to reach out for support.
