Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Indian Affairs. This morning we learned that the minister gave to the former president of the Liberal Party of Canada, Michel Robert, the mandate of negotiating the establishment of an independent Mohawk territory in Kanesatake. In that regard, the minister said that the top priority was the project to expand the native cemetery.
We all agree on the need to solve the native cemetery issue. However, will the minister pledge to ensure that the case of the forgotten ones of Oka, which has been dragging for two years now, will not be shelved by his negotiator, Michel Robert?
