Mr. Speaker, I am proud of the concrete actions we have taken to improve the lives of aboriginal people over the past years.
Since 2010, I have brought forward six pieces of legislation that will improve the living standards of aboriginal men, women and children across the country. Just this past month I announced funding for clean drinking water projects and economic development initiatives and a national initiative to improve first nation graduation rates.
I remain committed to working with aboriginal people and to taking concrete steps to enable them to become full participants in the economy.
