Madam Chair, I thank my friend for that very meaningful question.
As my friend from Kamloops mentioned in her speech, listening to those people on the ground, listening to the communities and following their direction on how to proceed, that is what the communities need. The government owes that to them. That is how we are going to at least start to move forward with this.
The federal government needs to work as a partner, but also listen to and take action on the recommendations and the suggestions it is hearing from the first nations community.
