Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd first like to thank all the witnesses, including Minister Chinna, Ms. Amaaq and Mr. Devereaux, for their speeches.
This is one of our first meetings, and once again we see that housing is the cornerstone of many of the difficulties and challenges that first nations people face.
When we hear Minister Chinna tell us that, in her region, many of the difficulties stem from the fact that some communities aren't connected by road and can only be reached in winter, we have a good idea of the difficulties posed by the territory. The difficulties may have the same consequences, but the solutions must be different depending on where you are in the territory. My riding can also identify with these same realities.
In some of the solutions that should be adopted, there is a lot of talk about centralization. I'd like to hear your views on the issue of centralization. Could there be, for example, a national strategy where everything would be deployed from the same place and from the same group of people, even though there must obviously be consultation? I'd like to hear your thoughts on that.
Would you prefer solutions to be adapted to the territories and to each community? In my riding, there are about 10 communities, and none of them have exactly the same needs.
My question is for the three witnesses.
