My final comment, Chief Picard, was we have received amendments from a number of different witnesses thinking the amendments would make this bill stronger. I don't think we've met anyone yet who has stated categorically or unequivocally that they disagree with the spirit of the bill, but many of them have suggested we could entertain amendments presented by witnesses to make the bill stronger. And that's been very helpful, I believe, to this committee.
That's the genesis of my question to you. If you have any specific recommendations.... If we were to drop references to first nations people from this bill, as you would recommend, alternatives may still achieve the same spirit we're both trying to achieve. Any specific recommendations you have would be extremely helpful for this committee, and if you can present them to us now or in the next few weeks, it would be helpful.
