Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thanks to the remaining witnesses for being present here today.
I've largely exhausted many of the questions I feel I had. In the absence, of course, of what I feel are satisfactory answers and a continuation of those important questions, I'll switch gears to speak more directly to the implementation of these policies.
One of them is first recognizing that the status quo is not working. Do you agree?
Maybe we could have all three members agree that the status quo isn't working, because I feel like we have to start from the basics here, given the minister's lack of answers. Maybe we could start with the deputy minister and go to both assistant deputy ministers.
Just quickly, do you think the status quo is working, and is it to the benefit of indigenous people?
