Thank you.
I'm going to interject, because I am seriously running out of time. I want to ask one more question before they kick me out of this place today.
This has taken a long time to get here. In my office, we've monitored some indigenous legislation over the last couple of years. You talked about Bill C-29, which was introduced on the last day before the summer break. Bill C-38, which we finally debated last Friday, was introduced on the last day before last Christmas, and 11 months later we're actually debating it in the House of Commons. Bill C-53 was finally introduced on the last day before the summer break in June 2022.
This has taken a long time. I think there were several promises, dates and expectations created for your leaderships by the government.
I'm going to start with you, Michelle. You keep getting cut off by being last, so I'm going to start with you.
Do you want to comment at all on what you think took so long, why it took so long, or why it took until the very last minute, when I know this was promised several times in advance of that?
