Mr. Speaker, we have a good idea of what happened in Manitoba where the Liberals lost 50 per cent of their seats.
Aboriginal representatives from Yukon as well as the James Bay Cree claim a constitutional right to be consulted in the prescribed manner before the enactment of Bill C-68. Both groups claim consultation in the prescribed manner never took place. The James Bay Cree indicate their letters to the justice minister regarding the matter were never even answered.
How does the minister explain the violation of the constitutional rights of these aboriginal peoples?
