Mr. Speaker, in other words, it is usual that the Prime Minister does not have the foggiest idea what he is doing.
I have another question. The first nations governance act has been under consideration by cabinet for at least 15 months. It proposes a major change to first nations policy in Canada, so it would have been the subject of extensive discussions in cabinet.
I know the Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development cannot disclose the content of cabinet discussions but can he tell the House whether he was surprised by the opposition to this government initiative expressed by the member for LaSalle--Émard?
