Mr. Chairman, I would like to move that clause 4.2 of Bill 25 be amended by

(a) renumbering it as subsection 4.1(1); and

(b) adding the following after proposed clause (1):

(2) Notwithstanding anything in this Act, where there is a conflict between this Act and the aboriginal rights of the aboriginal people of the territories, which includes but are not limited to aboriginal rights in

(a) treaties;

(b) land claims agreements; and

(c) self government agreements,

those rights shall prevail to the extent of the conflict.
