In debates on Bill C-69, Conservatives supported the promise of capacity funding for indigenous people to participate in the regulatory process. This is why we also supported loan guarantees and other fiscal measures that you have all called for. Sometimes first nations need to litigate on many of the issues that the national chief has raised through regulatory processes because they're ignored on other issues by other governments.
I wonder if you could explain whether or not, between Bill C-69 and Bill C-5, any of that capacity funding for regulatory participation has actually gotten to local first nations to ensure that projects can be approved in a good way.
