Mahsi, Madam Speaker. Yesterday I made a statement in the House with regard to the Canada/Northwest Territories infrastructure agreement, which was signed August 24th. My question is to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment.
Just about $1 million committed by the federal government was from the First Nations infrastructure program. The Department of Indian and Northern Affairs officials are part of the approval process. Can the Minister assure me that, at the very least, this amount of money would be allocated to projects priorized by the First Nations organizations? Mahsi.
