Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Again, thanks, everyone, for your testimony.
Ms. Raitt, I want to refer back to a podcast that you did with Ehren Cory. In it you spoke about something that you said was very close to your heart, and that was indigenous equity participation. I think this is really an interesting piece. In particular, you talked about how this can't just be indigenous consultation or not just indigenous permission but an actual equity stake in participation in projects. Traditional infrastructure grants or programs would not really allow for an equity stake of partners, indigenous or otherwise. It's an application: You apply and then you receive money or not.
Can you perhaps speak about why the ability for indigenous equity is important, or other thoughts around that, if you have them? I want to give you some time to be able to speak to that.
