It isn't sufficient, in my mind, to say that climate change, forest fires and flooding have an impact on indigenous communities.
I think it's important to say that the reason that is the case is that, in a lot of situations, we actually move those communities into areas where they're more vulnerable. The responsibility is on Canada to be sensitive to that fact, to pay compensation where appropriate and to move to the heart of the issue that you're addressing, MP Ashton, in being proactive in ensuring those communities have the support where they can. There's a responsibility that goes over and beyond the statistical reality that X-community is x-times more vulnerable than non-indigenous communities. We are, in part, the cause of it. That's important to realize.
I haven't looked at your bill in full yet and in order to give it a proper response, I would have to review it, but I look forward to doing so.
