Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Paul, do you want to add something?

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Okay. All three of you have also mentioned the new legislation brought in by the province. It sounds like it's been a positive initiative. Could you talk about the role of the province in this legislation and how you see that unfolding? Do you have any thoughts on that?

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Thank you very much. Thank you, all of you, for your fine presentations, and welcome to Ottawa. My first question will be directed right to Duane Smith because he's the freshest in my mind. Generally, I think you said that it's not a perfect bill, but you're supportive of th

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  That's in Manitoba.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  I can tell you that in Canada there were well over 200,000 children who have received support from Jordan's principle. Mindy or Bonnie, what advice do you have for us as elected officials on how we can help you better do your job?

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  That's excellent. Are you confident that once 100% of the boil water advisories are lifted by 2021, we will have the adequate people in place to operate them?

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  That's it. Great.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Thank you for your presentations. You've just referenced the lack of progress in the last 18 years. I can speak for the last three years.
