I have heard the comment of Mr. Boissonnault, who is defending himself, but the amendment I am presenting is the opposite. We are talking about 12 more lines to define these terms. The definition is intended to be broad and is intended to open up opportunities in line with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. They are also in keeping with the very sincere feeling that excited me when I asked people about the spiritual and sacred dimension of these artifacts. In any case, my amendment is of a completely different nature. However, in order to debate your amendment, I would like to tell you that my amendment goes in the opposite direction by adding 12 lines. Needless to say, I am opposed to your proposal.
