Fair enough.
Can I go to the third theme? This is on the issue, again quoting from your brief, that “if Canada is going to make best advantage of its resources, we need to align our interests with those of the First Nations”. You talk about completing the land claims, which is an important issue, in such a way that aboriginal people “prosper as their lands produce”.
This is another question I have put to other witnesses. I'm trying to get an indication of just how mature our relationships are with first nations. Would you agree that one of the biggest stumbling blocks to progress in the minds of first nations leaders is not just land claims but actual full-equity participation in these projects as owners—not employees or subcontracted small business people but as owners—of these projects? Do you think that is the next logical step that has to be taken to be able to deal with first nations as full partners?
