Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The government is willing to do whatever is necessary to show the respect and dignity that aboriginal people are due. June 21st, as a designated day, should be treated appropriately by this government.
As far as I know, none of the aboriginal governments, none of the chiefs in councils, Metis organizations, land claim organizations, have initiated any particular action at this time. All I am suggesting is if the aboriginal leaders across the Territories wish to make such a suggestion, we would be more than willing to receive it. It is just that we need to know that any action we take is going to gain the support of the aboriginal people on whose behalf we would do that. If there is expressed interest for an action such as the Member suggests, then of course we would act appropriately. Thank you.
