I'll go to Sharon McIvor next.
Thank you for 60-plus years of fighting this fight. I'm looking at some of the things from where I'm from. I'm from Treaty 6 in Alberta, and I'm a status Indian from Enoch Cree Nation, so I live this every day as well.
An article headline from February 9, 2025, reads, “First Nations life expectancy [is] 19 years lower than other Albertans” in Treaty 6, Treaty 7 and Treaty 8 in Alberta. It's 19 years lower than the Canadian average in Alberta.
You mentioned that it took you 30-plus years to get a court result in terms of having your son recognized as a part of your family. How many more people will perish trying to be a part of their own families in the battle to be recognized under status?
