Mr. Speaker, with respect to my friend's last point about encouraging and allowing for business opportunities because of the bill, as the government claims, I wonder if he could make a specific comment.
Would the bill enable a similar agreement to what the Gitxsan treaty negotiator established with the Enbridge northern gateway pipeline? Would the bill curtail such agreements being done without the knowledge and commitment of the first nations people represented by that leadership, which was t the case in the Gitxsan situation? Would the bill correct that situation which, as he would know, caused an enormous amount of strife within the Gitxsan Nation and the people of the northwest?
