Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to go back to the issue raised by your predecessor, the concern about the ability to deny access to information based on the vagueness of requests. That has a particular implication for indigenous communities doing research for claims. We just had a case in which a document that was nearly 100 years old, relating to the treatment of Indian children in a tuberculosis hospital, was denied. My concern is that the crown is always the defendant in dealing with any of these hearings for indigenous justice. The farther back you go in Indian Affairs, the more of a black hole it is, which is why many of the documents are more vague.
How do we ensure that indigenous justice is maintained in the application of Bill C-58 if people who are researching historic documents might not know the exact name of the document and have to do fishing expeditions because they're not sure where the evidence is?
