Mr. Speaker, just to respond quickly to the member's last comments, I can assure him that whether it is the Prime Minister or members on the government benches, we will not play games with indigenous people. Indigenous people are in fact a nation we are obligated to work with.
The legislation that is being proposed, Bill C-10, to establish the commissioner for modern treaty implementation, is something that is being relatively well received. Can the member provide his thoughts on the principles of the legislation as proposed and on the general feeling of the indigenous communities he represents, and also those beyond the province of B.C.?
