Qujannamiik, Iksivautaq.

Thank you, Chairperson.

Thank you to the minister and his officials for appearing before us today.

This is a very serious bill. We've heard testimony from first nations and Métis. I'm not sure if you've been paying attention to some of what's been shared. Have you paid attention to any of what's been shared during this study?

I see you are signalling yes.

Would you agree, then, that this Liberal government has played a role in dividing first nations, Métis and Inuit against each other by introducing this bill in the way that this government did?
