Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  I'm sorry, I was saying again that this is for Treaty 6. I'm not speaking for them. Now I've forgotten the question.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Yes. I was going to offer two examples of why we do this. The Jay Treaty is one example. The other treaty is in the Migratory Birds Convention Act. Those are international agreements. One, the Jay Treaty, only goes one way, because Canada did not pass legislation to ratify the Jay Treaty.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Thank you very much for your kind words. First of all, I am not speaking for the Confederacy of Treaty Six or the Treaty 6 First Nations. I am speaking as an individual. The accurate time frame now is actually 43 years. Some people think the debate lasted 20 years. It actually started in 1977, before some of you were even born.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  [Witness spoke in Cree]. Good morning to everyone, all your excellencies. My name is Willie Littlechild and I'm addressing you from Ponoka, Alberta.
