Mr. Speaker, press reports in B.C. are saying the predictable thing: British Columbians should expect a long, hot summer of blockades, quoting Shuswap band leader Ken Dennis.

Can the minister assure British Columbians he will commit to consistently involving himself in these disputes rather than passing the buck to the province?
