Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Phare, you recommended improvements to Bill C‑61 in three areas. Since we don't have much time, I think it would be very germane to the study if you could send them to us in writing. That way, we could examine them closely. Thank you.
Mr. Haymond, the justice department officials said that the first nations water commission had limited powers.
How might those limited powers prevent the commission from effectively fulfilling its mandate of providing support and managing water issues affecting first nations?
I asked the question given the limitations on another commission preventing it from properly fulfilling its role of protecting and consulting first nations like yours. I'm talking about the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, of course.
Should this be seen as a limitation or a red flag? Thank you.
