Thank you, Madam Chair.
Welcome to both of you.
I listened as you talked about a number of projects and announced several others. For the past few months now, we have been hearing from various groups in different communities across Canada. Whether the topic is education, prevention, health, funding, murders, the abduction of women or the hundreds of unsolved cases, there seems to be a total disregard for what is happening in those cases, both on and off the reserve.
My colleague mentioned the Sisters in Spirit initiative, which produced outstanding work.
Given all the measures you announced, how long do you think it will take to solve the problems of aboriginal women?
