Yes. Thank you. Thank you for the report. I want to mention about the consultation and relationship because it's emphasized in this report. When we say "consultation", it goes two ways, you know.

And as part of this work, will the Department of Justice be implementing the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls final report Calls to Justice? Thank you.
