Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'll come back to the last few questions, but from a different angle.
Ms. Redfern, several other witnesses have mentioned, as you have, that when you use the expertise of indigenous-owned companies for infrastructure in the Arctic, it is more efficient, faster, and less expensive. However, we have often heard from other witnesses that the government has ruled out some projects altogether.
Are there any arguments that are given for the rejection of these projects or is it really only due to a lack of organization or logistics on the part of the government in awarding projects?
