Jamie Schmale Conservative
“I support this self-government bill because it is done well and protects private property. We can pass bills like this quickly when they do not harm private property.”
“Mr. Speaker, I am excited to see those future agreements when they come forward. I would like to say that the government knows where our lines are in the sand. If it is going to impact private property, that is something we cannot really accept on this side of the House. However, if the legislation is laid out clean, as it is here, I think there is greater potential for that to happen. Of course, this legislation, Bill C-27, is built on the framework of the Déline agreement, Bill C-15, which was brought under Stephen Harper. Again, when it is done properly, we can get things done quickly here.”
