The reality is that there is a lot of red tape around everything that is done. I'll give you an example. In the 1980s and 1990s, the Inuit were building homes by themselves. Later, there was a transition, so you needed to have a Red Seal, the paperwork, the education—all of this—to be able to do it. A lot of the people who had that capacity were sidelined for individuals brought in from the south to build homes, even though they could do it and they could demonstrate the capacity to do it. Because they did not have the certification to do it, they weren't able to. That extended beyond just the trades and beyond things at the community level.
The reality is that today, we are trying to see how we can take that back. Going back to education, it's about doing education at the community level without people having to leave their community. When I say “allow”, I mean that education is run by government. How a certification is done is run by government. All of this is run by government. What I mean by “allow” is let's work together to find a common pathway to success for everyone.
