We agree that it should be amended now. It should not be passed. It should not be left to phase two. It needs to be fixed now. To the extent that an amendment can encompass what Dr. Palmater has suggested in terms of paragraph 6(1)(a) for everybody, we certainly agree with that.
We want to see hierarchies removed from the Indian Act. This bill perpetuates hierarchies. Those need to be removed.
We certainly don't think the bill should be passed as is, at all. It needs to be amended.
