Good morning, everyone.
To touch on your question, Pam, in looking at the criteria for accessing this program, they are very restrictive for indigenous women. There's nothing cultural about the criteria, and it's almost a barrier for them to access this program. Family is very important for indigenous people, so it's a program that needs to be encouraged, and the criteria need to be overhauled to include a cultural perspective.
I've been to Buffalo Sage in Edmonton and have travelled across Canada to the various institutions and healing lodges. I've witnessed mothers with their babies at Buffalo Sage, and the effect and the impact that this has on the other women is astounding.
