Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the Leader of the NDP for asking a question on indigenous issues on this National Indigenous Peoples Day. It is extremely important that we deliver clean water to people right across the country. That is why we made a commitment on ending long-term boil water advisories. When we got into office in 2015, there were 109 in place. We have now lifted over 120, but there are more to do. I can assure members that in every community where there is a long-term boil water advisory, there is also a plan, a project manager and the resources in order to lift that drinking water advisory for good. We will continue the work to make sure we are creating real opportunities for indigenous peoples across this country.
