Mr. Chairman, I, too, will be supporting this bill. I mentioned earlier, when we were dealing with the report, some of my concerns were with regard to finance. But then looking at the coming into force clause would give ample time for the government to determine how and where they're going to get their resources from. So in that respect, I have no major problems with supporting this particular bill.
I note, Mr. Chairman, that the reprint of Bill 6 occurred with the concurrence of the Standing Committee on Legislation. The whole bill had 75 clauses, but the reprint only has 74 clauses. I note that there are a number of clauses in here that Members may be questioning. Some of the issues that were raised by the standing committee have to be seriously looked at. As my colleague from Yellowknife Frame Lake has indicated, especially the area of levying of fees has to be examined, in my view. If amendments are required, I think the government has to move on it so that we have no major problems in that whole area.
Mr. Chairman, I will be supporting the bill because I note, as I indicated earlier, that it doesn't come into force for the next two years. I know that the general public has been wanting this type of legislation to be in place for a number of years now, and I think the onus is on us to adhere to the wishes of the general public. They waited a long time for us to have this type of legislation, and I think it's time that we move on it and pass this particular legislation. I would encourage, Mr. Chairman, all Members to support this particular bill.
We know that they have two years to figure out how they're going to resolve that whole issue of finances. So in that respect, Mr. Chairman, I will be supporting this particular piece of legislation in front of us. Mahsi.
