Mr. Speaker, the member just said we need to respect indigenous peoples. Is the member aware that 20 indigenous communities are directly affected by this project and that all 20 support it? Is the member aware that, according to the National Coalition of Chiefs, the majority of the community's hereditary chiefs are in favour of the project?
Yes, some are against it, but the majority of the population is for it. According to one of the hereditary chiefs, 85% of the community is for it.
With everyone in agreement, what is the government waiting for?
