Mr. Speaker, one of the concerns we have is whether the consultation process leading up to this should have been dealt with a good number of years ago. Some of the litigation that has gone on has finally forced the government, both the current one and the prior one, to begin to engage in serious consultation as required by the Supreme Court in some of those decisions.
Does my colleague feel that the consultation process on the bill is adequate and, more important, is satisfactory to the first nations across the country?
