This is one of a number of motions that we've put forward to change the term used in the bill from “traditional knowledge” to “Indigenous knowledge”. It's in keeping with what we've heard from a number of different witnesses that the act really needs to emphasize indigenous knowledge and not just traditional knowledge. This supports our goal of advancing reconciliation through this legislation. There are a number of different places where this occurs within the bill itself. This Liberal amendment will address that. It's changing the words from “traditional knowledge” to “Indigenous knowledge”.
