Mr. Speaker, that was not the question. Therefore, it is not surprising that I did not receive an answer.
There is, however, one question that the minister can surely answer, as it relates to a matter that is not before the courts. I will speak slowly so that the minister hears it clearly.
This question relates to the argument of genetic purity used to justify the eviction of the families from Kahnawake. Does the minister not recognize that this kind of argument reflects a discriminatory attitude which blatantly contravenes the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms?
