[Member spoke in Inuktitut, interpreted as follows:]
Mr. Speaker, I wish to thank the member who just spoke. He and I met and he understands the situation. I know I can work very well with him. As I represent the NDP, I plan to work with all parties to better our lives and our people's lives. I plan to work with ministers as well.
I also met with Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami today. They met with the member also. I understand that he is working with the Inuit national organization, Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, of Canada, as they stated to me today. I encourage the member to keep that up.
Members should listen to the indigenous organizations and work with them, changing policies if that can better their lives. We talked a lot about funding; we never have enough to meet all our needs to solve problems, but we understand that we also have to work together very hard to improve things.
