Qujannamiik, Iksivautaq.
I'm looking at PV-3 and NDP-51. Just as an example, in PV-3, it reads:
must ensure that all residents, legal occupants and users of buildings located on the First Nation lands of the First Nation have regular access to clean and safe drinking water in those buildings.
The first part focuses on buildings. It continues:
(2) For greater certainty, the buildings referred to in subsection (1) include homes, and having “regular access to clean and safe drinking water” in relation to a resident’s or legal occupant’s home refers to having, in such a home, drinking water of a quality and quantity sufficient for all usual and necessary uses of water as in a similarly situated non-Indigenous home
This one focuses on homes, whereas I see NDP-51 reading differently. It reads:
First Nation governing body, must ensure that
(a) access to clean and safe drinking water of a quality that meets the standard set out in section 14, whether from a public or private water system, is provided to all residents, occupants and users of buildings located on the First Nation lands of the First Nation;
(b) access to water of a quantity that meets the standard set out in section 15 is available on the First Nation lands of the First Nation; and
(c) wastewater effluent treatment meets the standard set out in section 16 so that all residents, occupants and users of buildings located on the First Nation lands of the First Nation can benefit from it.
For me, NDP-51 seems to be quite different from PV-3 because NDP-51 talks about standards and the standards that need to be met. I don't understand how it could be ruled that, if we vote in favour of PV-3, we wouldn't be able to vote for NDP-51.
