Thank you for that very important question.
This takes a lot of my time. Working with indigenous leaders across Canada, we are developing an action plan to implement the declaration. We would like a draft of this action plan to be made public in early 2023, since the deadline for submitting the plan is June 2023. So we are working hard.
This deadline was suggested by indigenous leaders two years ago. Making the draft plan public will help focus the comments and suggestions that will come from it, and frame the discussions that will follow. We are moving forward and working hard. This is a very serious issue for all of us, but especially for indigenous peoples. We hope to have an action plan in place next June.
