Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to present, in both official languages, the seventh report of the Standing Committee on Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development.
This is a provisional report on the pressing problems noted by the committee when it traveled to northern Quebec and Nunavut in May 1998 as part of its study of aboriginal economic development. It recommends that the government act quickly to meet the basic needs of northern Quebec's Cree and Inuit with respect to housing and Nav Canada infrastructures.
The committee has asked that the government respond within 30 days.
