Indian Affairs and Northern Development was built around a core mandate of services to first nations communities. We're not very good at dealing with off-reserve and urban aboriginal issues. The only way we can reach some of those populations, or even do a good job on reserves, is to mobilize the expertise and talents of specialized departments.
