Madam Speaker, it is really interesting when we do the contrast. If we were to take the Conservative approach on this issue, I really and truly believe it would be damaging in the long run, and in the short run, for Canadians in all regions of the country.
It is really encouraging to hear that the Bloc and the New Democrats have a much better understanding of the situation. Earlier today, in a ministerial statement, we heard the Prime Minister talk about the importance of having patience on the issue.
The member spent a lot of time talking about Ottawa. Would he not agree that as a part of the bigger picture, we need to include provincial governments and stakeholders and when we talk about indigenous people, it is really important to look at the bigger picture before we jump to any quick resolution?
