We've found solutions locally and regionally. I could cite a number of examples of progress made across a region, a first nation and even a province, such as New Brunswick or British Columbia. However, a national solution would require the engagement of all regional coalitions and the Assembly of First Nations. It is really difficult to achieve a consensus on specific measures. I believe we can readily agree on the diagnosis, but not on the specific solutions.
There are a lot of different views out there on what should be done and how to do it. If you follow what's happened with legislation affecting first nations over the last 10 or 15 years, you will see that none of them have been easy. They have always been controversial and they always require a decision by Parliament: are we prepared to move with this despite the fact that not everybody is happy about it? And that's going to be the case when we bring forward legislation about education or water or any of the other pieces the government has in mind for this Parliament.
