Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I am very grateful for the presence of the minister and the officials.
I would like to start with some comments you made before, Minister.
I appreciate your comments recognizing the impact that colonization has had on exacerbating the risk that indigenous communities face. I do have a particular example with the Líl'wat Nation in my riding, which has been relocated to a location where it's subject to many different natural disaster risks.
You also mentioned the trauma that's experienced by indigenous people who are displaced. We saw that in B.C. last year with the indigenous people who were displaced by the heat dome and the fire in Lytton. Only a year later, folks started returning, but many of the indigenous people who were displaced were relocated into other indigenous communities.
For the reasons you already mentioned, there is a distrust when the government wants to relocate indigenous people. With this in mind, and to avoid the trauma you spoke of earlier, how does the government support this type of culturally appropriate temporary relocation?
