I agree entirely, and thank you for this affirmation. It is why I fought so hard during the debates on Bill C-69 and Bill C-5 in order to ensure that the Crown had a plan to fulfill its duty to consult. The only way to get to yes on major projects, in a way all Canadians want now more than ever, is to get there in a good way, through a two-way dynamic with decision-makers at the table, with rights respected and with the federal Crown delivering on its irrefutable duty.
You touched on some pathways and specifics about how this can be done well. I wonder if your organization, or any of its governing nations, has been consulted yet on the 11 projects the Liberals have announced they've referred to the Major Projects Office.
Also, do you want to expand on any of those other specific pathways, or comment more on the way the federal government can live up to the promises, in its own words, that it made to indigenous people and Canadians in every single corner of the country?
