Thank you to both of you for your testimony.
I'm going to start with you, Ms. Teillet.
Some of the historical things that you shared with us are shocking to hear. When we hear about that kind of discrimination, it's hard for us to even fathom, in today's day and age, some of the types of discrimination you were talking about, especially when you're talking about people who went to serve their country despite the fact that maybe their country didn't really acknowledge them and their backgrounds.
What I'd like to do, though, is jump a little closer to the present. This committee previously studied the experience of indigenous veterans. Unfortunately, as has often been the case with this government, they accepted a number of the recommendations that this committee made and then never followed through with them. This practice of not keeping promises is, I think, really at the core of the conversation around reconciliation.
I want your thoughts on how damaging it is, how demoralizing it is to first nations, Inuit and Métis people to see a government acknowledge their issues, promise to fix them and then never bother to follow through.
