Thank you. We certainly support the objective of this subamendment and amendment, and you'll see by our amendment....
I just have a couple of technical questions, Mr. Wild.
When we put forward and perhaps when the NDP put forward the original amendments, because they're the same, we had in mind that paragraph (c) on page 194 mentions:
the government of a foreign state, a provincial government, a municipality or an aboriginal body named in Schedule VII,
--which is coming up--
or any of their agencies;
Because an aboriginal body named in schedule VII is in fact an aboriginal body that is party to a self-government agreement given effect by an act of Parliament--that's what the definition is--it seems like the subamendment is redundant to the amendments we've both put forward. I just want to make sure from Mr. Wild that this is so; however, because I have some idea of Mr. Wild's aversion to too many schedules in acts, if we were to find that schedule VII was not necessary, is there a preference of doing away with schedule VII and putting the language here, or limiting the language here to the original amendment and keeping schedule VII?
