I think what Ms. Landolt talked about, not being funded by the Status of Women, is a reality for all women's groups. You may not get it all the time; you may not even hear from them. We've had the same problems over the years with different departments.
But the solution isn't to cut the funding, especially for the most impoverished women. I don't know the organization that Ms. Landolt represents, but certainly Métis women would not subscribe to her thinking. You have to walk a mile in our moccasins for a while and understand that we have to have funding for the impoverished women, whether they're aboriginal women or women of colour. When you talk about women being represented, less than 0.005%...you will not find aboriginal women in executive positions, in top management positions in this country. It's ludicrous for me to sit beside this woman and listen to her rhetoric, because it does not represent women in this country. When you say you have 55,000 members out of 20 million women, that's a little bit much for me to swallow.
