Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question. I do believe that all indigenous communities must have representation on this council, including the Inuit and the Cree. It is very important because there must be stability. This council will finally address certain issues that have been known for years and even centuries.

Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his fine speech. I would like to know his views about the council's governance and representativeness within the council. In terms of governance, the bill proposes that the board of directors be composed of a minimum of nine and a maximum of 13 directors. In terms of representativeness, the bill proposes that the board of directors include representation from first nations, Inuit, Métis, other peoples in Canada, indigenous organizations, youth, women, men and gender-diverse persons. I would like my colleague to tell me what he thinks of the council's governance and its representativeness.
