That is a big question, and certainly not all of it's covered in the bill. The bill is very specifically about specific claims.
But I think there's no question that many first nations see the settlement of their specific claim as part of the way out of their economic problems, or of taking advantage of economic opportunities.
For example, I was up in northern Saskatchewan the other day. We had an agreement on a $10 million deal with the Muskoday First Nation. They're delighted with the opportunities it's going to give their first nation. It's a well-run first nation—they have good governance and all those kinds of things—and now, in addition to all that they already do well, they have $10 million to look at opportunities, whether it's to buy land to add to the reserve or other opportunities. It's a pretty nice jump-start for them.
Depending on the specific claims—as has already been mentioned, many of them are quite small, as well—it's not as though it's a panacea, and I don't want to sell it as such. You might end up with, for example, a case where someone has had the corner of their property taken off. A first nation might say that no one had compensated it for that road allowance, and it's a legitimate claim.
They might only get, depending on circumstances, a couple of hundred thousand dollars for that land. Let's not pretend that's going to turn the nation around. On the other hand, it settles a grievance, which creates, I think, a different atmosphere because it's settled. And of course, any money they get is almost always useful for economic development; in that sense it will help it. But it's completely at the discretion of the first nation.
