It's a subamendment. We'll accept it in the formal fashion. It still needs.... We have a subamendment on the floor, so we'll deal with it now.
Are there any other speakers on the subamendment?

Yes. We had no problems with Mr. Bélanger's amendment. We've had a discussion on Ms. Crowder's amendment. Because we didn't have a problem with your original amendment, I don't think there's an issue with the subamendment to the amendment.
We're saying a lot here. I would like to point out, however, that we are changing the things that Indian Oil and Gas Canada will have to consider. They will have to be cognizant of these changes, and it does change what they would normally do, given the reference prior to these amendments. So as long as we recognize that these aren't free, and there is some change in management focus that will be required as a consequence....

I think that we should vote for the amendment as amended. Let me give you an example. We regularly receive reports from the Cree-Naskapi Commission. It was when we received that report that we became aware of some problems and we were able to have Cree and Naskapi representatives appear before us. Since then, things have started to happen, in less than a year, in fact.
That is exactly the goal of Ms. Crowder's amendment. We should pass it as amended by the subamendment that we have just passed.

Have a great morning.
