Thank you.
Ensuring that there's abundant, available and affordable power and fuel for all Canadians is so important, especially for indigenous communities, as Dr. von der Porten has pointed out.
My question is for you, Dr. von der Porten. Back in the debates on Bill C-69, Conservatives of course supported increased capacity funding for first nations participation in regulatory processes. Conservatives also support more equity ownership and all kinds of energy development production.
What I found from first nations and Métis settlements that I've followed up with since those debates is that all of them say that no funding ever flowed from the capacity funding out of Bill C-69 to assist in the regulatory process for first nations and Métis people to participate. I wonder if you have any comments on that. You yourself also commented on the importance and potential of more indigenous transmission generation and ownership. Is there anything you'd like to expand on in that regard?
