To me, meaningful consultation would have been [Technical difficulty--Editor] in the community. We are a very busy community. I wasn't a part of any of the face-to-face consultations. I do believe that my elected chief, Chief Arnold Clifton—who sends his regrets that he wasn't able to be here—was a part of these processes, as were our consultative committees.
Having said that, the amount of information that could have or should have trickled down to us did make its way, but I think the way it happened could have been better. I need to take some ownership on that. I began talking about the busy lives that we all have, but, having said that, I think that being able to sit with one another face to face, however we go down that road to make that happen, would have been the best for us.
