Thank you so much.
Having also heard from the Tzeachten First Nation—which has had its issues with the one-parent rule—does it not seem clear that at least some more consultation is needed so that we can avoid scenarios where there's continued discrimination? I understand that we all have the same intent with regard to the Indian Act—that discrimination must end. I think we all agree that the version sent to the Senate did not meet that intent and that you went beyond the scope asked of you, to add amendments for the second-generation rule.
I would like you to share with us on that. Would you agree that the minister has the obligation or duty to consult and thus to make sure there's some more consultation so that even if the second-generation cut-off were added as an amendment, some work is still done to ensure that discrimination truly does end?
