Thank you for that answer, Chief.
Both in that response and in your opening statement, you made mention of co-development and the need for first nations and the federal government to co-develop policies that will affect first nations and indigenous peoples going forward. In that context, I will turn to Chief Smoke.
Thank you for being with us today, Chief. I understand that you have had experiences in your role in working with the federal government on these consultative processes. Could you speak to that experience? From your perspective, what have the outcomes of that been for you and for your nation?
