“This bill has flaws. Even with a commissioner, it might still ignore what First Nations and Inuit communities want.”
“Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask a question about the bill’s shortcomings. Obviously, we are here to debate. However, although the government is saying that the bill will fully address the demands of the various indigenous communities, we know that there are problems with it that could result in the demands or desires of first nations and Inuit not being taken into account, even if there is a commissioner.”
