Madam Speaker, when my hon. colleague and friend from Nunavut speaks, she shames us all. My partisan instinct might be to jump up and say, but I am from the Green Party. I want to be a good ally more than I want to make empty claims. I want to be there, as we all do, along with my colleague from Kitchener Centre, to stand up when it matters, to insist that we do more than use “land back” hashtags and that we actually pursue land back as a key step in reconciliation. We have to recognize that decolonializing this country is the project that would save settler culture people. We have to fight together to create a fair country, and it is an honour to work in the same place as the hon. member for Nunavut.
