Hon. Bob McLeod at the Indigenous and Northern Affairs Committee

Yes. Thank you, Madam Chair.

What we see is that Bill C-88 certainly will improve and rebuild certainty for our investors in the north. I think it will also address court injunctions from indigenous governments and will bring into force modernization amendments to the MVRMA that were first passed five years ago.

Industries have indicated to us that they're prepared to work within the modernized MVRMA. We all want to move past court injunctions and have clear rules again.

Thank you.
