Mr. Speaker, the government needs to move quickly if it hopes to relieve tensions in New Brunswick and to prevent similar conflicts from happening in other parts of the country.
The government has an obligation to all its citizens, not just to select groups. It cannot allow the courts to draw racial boundaries through Canada's natural resources.
We have only two days left. Why will not the government petition the supreme court not to overturn the decision but to stay the decision and then ask for clarification of this Marshall decision?
