Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Kanesatake band council suspended work on the expansion of the Indian cemetery in a gesture of good will. The band council chief mentioned however that certain unspecified conditions would have to be met before negotiations could resume.
My question is, of course, for the minister of Indian affairs. Can he confirm that among the conditions set by Jerry Peltier, there is, according to CBC, the payment to the band council of certain sums of money? And if so, how much is involved?
