Madam Chair, I want to come back to a few things my colleague said. Generally speaking, I agree with him.
He said that first nations must go to court to assert their rights, and I think that is terrible. The Indian Act has existed since 1876, and that act does not respect who they are. We in the Bloc Québécois are not big fans of the Supreme Court. We believe that going to court is never the best solution. The best solution is for those in power to listen to and meet the needs of first nations. That is where we should begin, rather than threatening legal action, suing one another and communicating through the courts. That is not how problems get solved.
