Replying to Rebecca Alty (Liberal)
“Mr. Speaker, again, I think it is important that we distinguish among self-government agreements, land claim agreements, comprehensive agreements and constructive arrangements, such as parks agreements. It would be important to understand the Conservative position when it comes to only self-government agreements, because they are sometimes stand-alone agreements that are separate from land agreements and other constructive agreements. If I could understand the Conservatives’ position when it comes to self-governance, that would be really appreciated.”

Mr. Speaker, Procedure · 6 wordsI think I have answered this.Procedure Claims · 24 wordsIt depends what the government is putting on the table. I think we have outlined what we will support and what we will not. The ask · 22 wordsIf the minister, in the time available, would like to lay out a specific example, maybe I could give a better answer. Claims · 62 wordsShe is throwing out, “Will Conservatives support this?”, but we do not know what would be in it. If the K’ómoks Treaty were done properly, I think we would have a better chance of pushing it through the House. If the Cowichan decision were argued properly, I think we would have a different outcome for the people of the city of Richmond.Partly on point Reasoning · 22 wordsTo answer this broad question that could include anything, when the government is not putting anything on the table, is very difficult.
