Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Thank you, Chief. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I want to add a couple of things. First of all, when the cases on duty to consult came down at the Supreme Court level, the federation moved forward and implemented its own guidelines. We have our own FSIN consultation guidelines, which our chiefs enforce over us.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Good afternoon to all the members of Parliament here today. It's an honour to be here today to talk about the process--not only about the bill, but as the chief has mentioned, about the process that's happened. I think many times the federation has come here to speak about a reactive situation to bills that have been passed that have an impact on our treaty rights as well as our communities.
