What I just read into the record. There's no paragraph (b).

Can you do that? I don't think you can do that, because you already did the first part of it. I think all you can do now is either vote against it or subamend to remove paragraph (b). You can't deal with the part that you've already subamended.

I think we're agreeing violently, Madam Chair, so however the clerk advises us to proceed, we will do so.

The Chair Liberal Julie Dabrusin
I just want to be clear, because that's what my job is here. Your subamendment is to remove paragraph (b) from amendment NDP-16.

The Chair Liberal Julie Dabrusin
Now there's a new subamendment removing paragraph (b).

The commission's report uses words that are more worse than these words. It talks about cultural genocide. I don't understand why we've suddenly become a little fussy and why don't want to go through with it. I think that it's very relevant to talk about the erosion and destruction of Indigenous culture. Of course, we'll all be going to bed in an hour and we'll all be quite happy.
I don't see why there's an objection to this. In reality, this all comes from a report where much more serious words are used. I can't understand this caution.

Thank you, Monsieur Nantel.
In the TRC, however, there are a number of different calls to action, and this particular bill doesn't address all of that. It addresses only the languages component. The addition that you have really goes outside the scope in that respect. I think there are other ways and other avenues for us to be able to address that.

Liberal
The Chair Liberal Julie Dabrusin
Okay. Seeing no further debate, all in favour of the subamendment?
(Subamendment agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])
Now we have NDP-16 as amended. All in favour?
(Amendment agreed to on division [See Minutes of Proceedings])
Amendment LIB-12.6 cannot be moved.
NDP-17, I've been told, is inadmissible. You know the process when I say that it's inadmissible.

The Chair Liberal Julie Dabrusin
Monsieur Nantel appeals my decision.
Shall the decision of the chair be sustained? All in favour?
(Ruling of the chair sustained)

The Chair Liberal Julie Dabrusin
It is sustained, so NDP-17 cannot move forward.
NDP-18 has been deemed inadmissible as well, so we'll move ahead. As NDP-18 is inadmissible, shall the preamble carry as amended?

Some hon. members
Agreed.
