Madam Chair, I thank my colleague for the question. This allows me to reiterate the importance of talking nation to nation. I mentioned it at the end of my speech. The government cannot make proposals if it has not held consultations, if it has not opened a dialogue and if it has not listened to its local partners, the first nations communities. In my opinion, this may unfortunately have an impact on carrying out the action plan. There is no doubt about that, because some communities will walk away. As my colleague said, some communities have withdrawn from the process. How are we going to successfully follow through on the recommendations if the communities in question withdraw from the process? Again, it is critical to talk nation to nation and keep the dialogue open.
