Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the hon. member for her very relevant question.
We once again have to deal with this government's undemocratic measures and solutions. We cannot stress this enough. It goes without saying that this is not the first time that we have seen a minister give himself discretionary power. There have been other examples of this. This minister is no exception.
He is not giving aboriginal people any freedom to make their own decisions. He is not letting them take charge of their own realities and their own future. The government is not consulting first nations, and when it does, it does not take into account the solutions they propose.
We are faced with a government that wants to control everything and that wants to advance its political agenda without taking into account aboriginal peoples or MPs. That is the direction that things are going in, and we are truly dealing with undemocratic positions and decisions.
