I want you to comment, though, on some of the inconsistencies that come from governments applying their own legislation. Speaking for myself, which I can, when I pass my own election law, the same thresholds apply when it comes to creating your own custom election law, which is 50% plus one on a referendum.
I do thank the government at that time, a number of years ago, which said, “We'll ignore that and you can still have your custom election,” because we had a great turnout and did all of the above. Also, they refused to implement the First Nations Financial Transparency Act. They also said, “We want to consult and do free, prior and informed consent,” but they didn't do it on Bill C-5 and on other land regulation laws.
What does that say to you, when they pick and choose when to do consultation and when not to, and when to enforce a law and when not to when it comes to your jurisdiction?
