Thank you.
Legislation on the topic of matrimonial property rights on reserve has been introduced into the House and Senate four times in its various forms, and has been debated for over 40 hours in the House of Commons, Senate, and at committee. A total of 103 consultations were held across the country in 76 different locations over the period of the drafting of this legislation. I was hoping you could speak to the pressing need for this legislation and the importance of resolving the issue as soon as possible.
