I'll share my time with Mr. Stanton.
Very briefly, Minister, we're so happy that you're here today and so pleased that this issue will finally have a place in Canada law where matrimonial property rights will be encompassed.
I'm also very interested in what Wendy Grant-John had to say about the traditional values. Our son is married to an Ojibway girl--he's in the RCMP--and this kind of culture is very important to the roots and the foundation of any aboriginal family.
Could either the minister or Wendy Grant-John speak a little bit more about the importance of this and why we have to be very mindful of some of the things that are presented to us in this legislation that will come forward?
