Mr. Speaker, unless I am mistaken, I believe my colleague is a member of a first nation, which may explain why he thinks it is so important not to repeat the mistakes of the past and not—I do not want to use a bad word—to savagely expropriate property from people who have owned it for generations.
Yes, there will be consultations. We are told that we can be sure of that and that people will attend. However, for now, no consultations have been scheduled in Mirabel. We are still waiting. The people of Mirabel are being told to watch the corridor. They are being told that that they are being targeted, that they will have to leave their homes and that no one knows how much they will be given, when this will happen or how it will be carried out. They are being told that there may or may not be expropriations.
This is unacceptable. This is causing serious harm that could easily be avoided with a little better planning. This is unacceptable.
