In seconding the motion, Mr. Speaker, I would like to pay tribute to Mr. Kakfwi as the chairman of the committee, and the one who did all the work. I will speak very briefly, Mr. Speaker, because I think it is important that this particular report be given the attention it deserves. I believe there were two very important things that I read in this document which deserve to be acknowledged. One of them is the very important place which our government played in the development of the Triple E Senate concept. I think Mr. Kakfwi got in very early on this and helped it to gain momentum. He also played a major role in making sure that the issue of aboriginal rights was always at the forefront. In seconding the motion, I would like to make that tribute. Thank you.
