Mr. Speaker, I could not agree more with the minister.
The fact is that after section 35, the minister and his government have inserted another fishery, an aboriginal only commercial fishery. That fishery has no basis in the Constitution. In the Sparrow decision it was rejected or the idea of a commercial fishery was not addressed. In the most recent decision by the Supreme Court of Canada, the court declared that natives had a right to fish for food, ceremonial and religious purposes. There was no mention whatsoever of a commercial fishery.
Will the minister accept full responsibility and accountability for the native only commercial fishery which is operating in the Alberni Inlet?
