Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Alsop, thank you for being here and congratulations. It's a great moment for your nation.

You spoke about reconciliation. What tools will Bill S-16 give you? What are the next steps for your nation? Do you feel that the bill is the product of a process in which the free, prior and informed consent of your nation was respected?
