Madam Speaker, I would say this to Canadians who are following this debate: The only time the Conservatives will mention indigenous people is if it is to score partisan points. That is always the case, and it has always been the truth across Canada.
It is that truth or the second truth, which is that indigenous people have something the Conservatives want. That is the case in point that the hon. member for Timmins—James Bay just raised. I want to mention that he is a stalwart of indigenous rights. He has long been committed to indigenous people and our participation, not just in this place but right across the country.
I am willing to set aside what I have seen as a pattern from both parties to get a commitment from them to truly see that the solution toward indigenous justice lies not within their parties, but in the minds, imaginations and spirits of indigenous peoples. Their right to self-determination will never die.
