Mr. Speaker, at no time have we ever countenanced law-breaking.
At the same time, we on this side of the House understand that reconciliation remains a priority not just for our government, but for all Canadians.
We have been working hard to support law enforcement efforts in their respective jurisdictions to resolve the circumstances that have led to these blockades. That is our responsibility. We have been working hard to address the conditions and the concerns that gave rise to these blockades.
The responsibility for upholding the law and maintaining public safety is in fact the responsibility of the police of those respective jurisdictions.
