Mr. Speaker, I just finished reading into the record what I suggested should be done. Ms. Cook-Searson recommended that a process be put in place that would be selected by first nations, a tribunal or first nations electoral commission. That would seem to be a reasonable process. If a first nations electoral commission existed, there would be a non-partisan, arm's-length process that could oversee disputes and elections. We have that for our federal members of Parliament. Why not have it for first nations chiefs, councils and community members?
