QUESTION PERIOD — Ministry of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs

Indigenous Consultation

September 22, 2022


Hon. Donald Neil Plett (Leader of the Opposition) [ + ]

Minister, would you be able to provide us with a list of all the Indigenous organizations that you have consulted with on Bill C-11, as per your obligations under UNDRIP, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples? I don’t care whether they were at a committee or not. Would you undertake to send us a list of all Indigenous organizations that you consulted with before tabling this bill?

Hon. Marc Miller, P.C., M.P., Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations [ + ]

Are you talking, senator, about Bill-C15?

Senator Plett [ + ]

Bill C-11.

Mr. Miller [ + ]

I’m sure we could look at a list of people who were consulted, the Indigenous groups who were consulted as part of Bill C-11.

Senator Plett [ + ]

The question is, of course, minister, would you undertake to provide us with a list?

The Hon. the Speaker pro tempore

Thank you very much.

Honourable senators, the time for question period has expired. I am certain that you will join me in thanking Minister Miller for joining us today. Thank you, minister.

The Hon. the Speaker pro tempore

We will now resume the proceedings that were interrupted at the start of Question Period.
