Madam Speaker, I want to thank my hon. colleague from London—Fanshawe for her fantastic work and her deep commitment to reconciliation on behalf of indigenous people, particularly when it comes to those who are serving in our armed forces.
Indigenous people have deeply committed to the defence of this country through the Canadian Armed Forces. We can remember them and their deep contributions in World War II or World War I, but they also contribute today, insisting that the very important work of protecting the Arctic should be indigenous led. Inuit have long protected the northern part of the Arctic. We must continue in that great tradition and support them as they continue to do that work on behalf of themselves and Canadians.
