Thank you, Madam Chair.
We are talking about consultation, but I think what we have forgotten about, and this bill has not met, are the visions and goals of individual communities. I think it's really important to remember that the bill was designed to give immediate protection and then enable all the communities to move forward with their own plan. I could support an amendment that would say, let's support the individual communities in moving forward with developing their plan under this legislation. I think that would be much more appropriate. But as the Government of Canada and as parliamentarians, to walk away from a basic human right knowing that communities have opportunities, I just find it quite stunning, actually.
