Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, witnesses and colleagues, for being here today. It's a fascinating discussion.
The one thing about the braiding metaphor is that maybe it's not appropriate in all cases, but it does make a cord stronger. I think that's one of the richest parts of using that metaphor of braiding traditional knowledge with western science and western forms of knowledge: It makes us all stronger.
I'll repeat the same question that I had at the last session with other witnesses. I don't mind who answers.
K_ii'iljuus, obviously we'll start with you, as well as Chief Jones.
Do UNDRIP and the principles or the philosophy behind UNDRIP help to reinforce the dialogue with respect to finding the harmonies between indigenous knowledge and western knowledge?
