I call this meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number 18 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Indigenous and Northern Affairs.
We recognize that we meet on the unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinabe people.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted by the committee on June 18, 2025, the committee is commencing its study of federally recognized indigenous communities without land or modern treaty.
Before we go too far, I have a budget here that we need to adopt in the amount of $54,600. That was for four studies and a whole bunch of things, so we will adopt that. I'm sure we're going to come under that.
(Motion agreed to)
MP Schmale, did you have your hand up?
