Thank you very much, Chair.
I thank the minister for being here with us on this very important topic, because, indeed, it is a long-standing problem.
We heard testimony the other day, going back to the early 2000s, about the structural problems in addressing housing needs on and off first nations reserves and also the chronic lack of funding, which I know our government has tried to address. It's not just one-size-fits-all, from what I'm gathering from the testimony that we're hearing.
This is the fourth OAG report on first nations housing calling for serious, systemic changes to the Government of Canada's supports and programs. It's clear that our existing systems have led us to this unacceptable housing gap.
We've heard a lot of allegations thrown around in this committee about who is to blame for allowing this to happen. I'd like to hear your perspective on how we reached this point.
