Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the member for Lakeland a question. First, we can all agree that supporting a closure motion is absolutely stupid and unreasonable. We can also agree that, in terms of the environment, the Conservatives are once again lagging behind.
I would, however, like to point out a way in which the member was able to play an important role at report stage. The Indian Act was removed from schedule 2, so the government can no longer override the act or remove fundamental rights. We can agree that we are not talking about free, prior and informed consent, and we would have liked Bill C‑5 to address that, which it does not. An important step was made in committee, however, and indigenous stakeholders themselves have recognized it. I want to thank my colleague and the Conservatives for their co-operation on this.
What does my colleague think of the fact that the Liberals did not vote for this amendment?
