Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for North Island—Powell River for, as always, an excellent and thoughtful speech.
When I listen to the debate, it appears to me that there are different first nations and indigenous places that are ready to take over the governance of the children, and there are places that are far from that.
There appears to be no funding and no plan. To introduce this legislation in the dying days of the government is sort of like virtue signalling, if the Liberals cannot really execute it.
I wonder if the member could comment on whether she believes that the legislation, as it is written, could actually be put in place.
