Thank you, Chair.

I'm going to split my time with Gary Vidal.

President Caron, if you don't want to deal with him, just feel free to talk out your answers.

I want to drill back down to what Gary was talking about in terms of the benefits and how that associates with the membership in, say, Saskatchewan—as he heard from his members in northern Saskatchewan.

Do you understand that to be true? If you are not part of, say, Métis Nation-Saskatchewan, could there be some questions in terms of getting some of the benefits that are owed?
