Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Chief Plain, in the report itself there are about four pages dedicated to aboriginal consultation. I listened closely to what you had to say and to your concern for lack of consultation. There's one area within the report that speaks directly to this point. Paragraph 152 states:The Union of Ontario Indians Inc., in its intervention, raised a number of concerns, alleging that the “shipment of radioactive waste through the Great Lakes is a threat to, and violation of the Treaty and Aboriginal rights...”.
You said that you didn't get an opportunity to have an intervention. Is this document untrue?
