Madam Speaker, Procedure · 5 wordsI am very happy to.ProcedureClaims · 141 wordsI think we can all appreciate, as we have grown in understanding about the complexity of projects, the impact on the environment and the impact on communities, that more federal departments have been brought into the conversation.Those conversations have become more robust.The challenge, however, has become that our organization as a government has presented additional stacking of consultations and demand on the communities that we are hoping to support through these initiatives.What Bill C-39 would do is bring all that to one table and allow a robust conversation to occur that would take into consideration all the benefits, all the drawbacks, all the challenges and all the opportunities, 1and do so in a way that would be much more respectful of time.There are many horror stories of people having to be subjected to five or six consultations.Promise · 13 wordsLet us get it down to one and make it a better one.Vague promise
