The reality is that the Supreme Court of Canada says there are three sovereign jurisdictions in Canada. They include the jurisdiction indigenous peoples have, the provinces, and the federal government. The Supreme Court of Canada will tell us that they don't want to solve our issues; they don't want to be at the table with us. That's not their role. Our role is to sit down and work out what those jurisdictional issues are and to work together as governments. That's where this has to lead.
COP 22 just happened in Morocco. It just ended last week. With the huge commitment globally to have people work on these issues, I think Canada can lead. Canada can be one of the main entities that moves from the type of economy that we've been engaged in to a greener, cleaner economy. The only way we can do that is if we have discussion and dialogue and make priorities that are relevant to all of us. We can't work in isolation.
First of all, there's a jurisdictional question. We're obligated to follow the law. That's what we need to do in the first instance, and then prioritize what the items are that we really need to deal with.
