I can go first, I suppose.
I suppose what the declaration does is that it changes the relationship with all levels of government. Really, we have already been through many court cases. We have been through social disruption. We have been through the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples. We know what the problem is. It's the fact that governments deny our rights.
For the most part, in terms of what UNDRIP does, I really believe it doesn't give us more rights or do anything special. Really, it aligns the laws to recognize the indigenous rights of indigenous peoples to self-govern and their sovereignty and self-determination. Changing that relationship between governments will allow our people to flourish not only with economic development but also with changing laws for taking care of our children and for health care and policing. We have just seen all the issues with policing. We need to take jurisdiction. This is an overarching bill that can do that. We can have alignment of many laws out there.
I'm the chair of the chiefs committee on economic development. Certainly, this allows for industry to have more predictability and more certainty in terms of projects. This is where we need to come together and not end up in court or have some other mechanism to realize that certainty.
Thank you.
