Thank you for the question.
I know that all parties at this table worked really hard to amend the bill and make the bill even better, including the Conservative Party, which submitted successful amendments that were accepted.
I would probably just quote Chief Moonias, who is from Neskantaga First Nation, as you know, in MP Melillo's riding. He said this after that vote. He was actually very disappointed. He said:
We need you to act now.
We don't need perfection. We just need your best efforts.
He had more to say in the media as well about how long that community has suffered and how far they've come, and how this essential legislation is going to prevent Neskantaga from ever having to return to those days of being neglected and underfunded by a federal government.
