Qujannamiik, Iksivautaq.
I appreciate everyone's patience on this. I know that if I had been told earlier that there were line conflicts, I would have done my analysis sooner, so that I could work on a subamendment earlier, so that we wouldn't have to suspend. If there are line conflicts with any of my amendments, it would be helpful to tell me right away, so I can submit potential subamendments to avoid these suspensions.
The reason I feel that CPC-9 and NDP-56 are both important is that they have different intentions. I'm very thankful to the committee for its patience in allowing me to submit a subamendment.
The main wording of NDP-56 was submitted by the First Nations Advisory Committee on Safe Drinking Water. I thank them for the work they did to see that Bill C-61 could be improved by adding this subamendment to CPC-9.
It is to add, after “bodies”, the following words:
and meet the obligations set out in sections 31, 33 and 34.
Qujannamiik.
