Okay, Ms. McArthur, thank you. I appreciate that definition.
Can we move towards what we talked about here and where you are going on this?
There's a little background, of course. The first time you buy a Lonely Planet about Canada you find that Trail, British Columbia, is the most toxic site in North America. When the immigrants, at that time it was the Italian immigrants, came to Trail to work in the smelter there, the men all died by the time they were 50. It's a town full of old women with no old men. I know that's not racial, but it's still environmentally disproportionate on a community. That is a marginalized community from an economic perspective, not a racial perspective. There's no racism involved there. This is what I'm dwelling on: whether we're dwelling on this with racism as opposed to marginalization. Yes, there are rural areas. There are places in this country where industrial activity has harmed the local people who work there and live there.
Is this a rural versus urban type of approach? In that case, shouldn't our rural and racialized communities be allowed to develop and find their way out of this and get out from under the yoke of the Indian Act?
I'll put it to Ms. May first.
