Mr. Speaker, during the last general comments, I spoke about two variant cultures, and I was using some examples. In Saskatchewan, they do have separate schools for people of different religious beliefs, the Hutterites, for example, have their own kind of school that is not influenced by the outside world. In Quebec, for example, you do have English and French schools, and in Ontario, they have what they call "survival schools" that have been implemented by enlarged cities, where there are a large number of aboriginal people, and the native organizations have tried to run their own schools.
One thing that the Minister indicated, Mr. Chairman, with regard to his opening remarks, is that he said a plan would be developed for the delivery of educational services to people holding rights under Section 23, under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. I would like the Minister to explain what exactly this means? Can I get clarification on that? I am not sure, Mr. Chairman, but in 1984, we tried to introduce the Human Rights Code, but because of the aboriginal collective rights of people, the government did not proceed.
As for the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, it does talk about individual rights as opposed to collective rights, and I am just wondering if you can clarify what you meant by that in your opening statement?
