In response to the remarks from the member from Guelph, one of the things that we heard during the committee hearings, both from Indigenous leaders and from the Ontario Mining Association, was that there’s a lack of a framework for not only consultation but how decisions are made. What we found probably most disappointing was that the government decided not to adopt motions to create that framework—so actually make a solid platform between governments, because now, often, it’s left up to mining companies, and they don’t want that either.

Could you comment on that?
