I would like to say that the amendment we propose aims to clarify the fact that the rights of the province and indigenous jurisdictions must be respected or at least taken into consideration when the federal government makes a decision. The point, more specifically, is to avoid situations where promoters who are governed by federal regulation refuse to respect provincial laws. There are several at this time in Quebec.
This would solve the problem related to compliance with municipal rights, to the extent that the province where they are located gives them the rights. Municipal law derives from the provinces. In Quebec, we recognize the principle of subsidiarity and the role of municipalities, but that principle could be much more present in the environmental area.
