I think Ontario got it right when they said that they have to look at historical injustices and give more weight to indigenous representation based on the history of this country. I think that if the commission would have gone in with a mandate or even turned their minds at all to indigenous communities.... They're not mentioned once in this commission report. The fact that indigenous communities, Indian reserves, get all of their services from the federal government, not the provincial governments, shows that there is an increased number of reasons why these federal commissions should take this into consideration, and they just didn't.
The fact that this may result in litigation because of that is something that I think this committee has the opportunity to remedy today, before it goes into that situation.
