There are so many facets to freshwater protection that occur in a country as large as Canada. One thing I did not hear a lot about was first nations, particularly concerns about treaty rights. I am from British Columbia. Many treaties have not yet been negotiated.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6313986\" data-originallang=\"en\"> The member talked about respecting provincial jurisdiction. What about treaty rights? What about first nations, especially in my area of the Okanagan? Many of the Indian bands, particularly the Penticton Indian Band and the Osoyoos Indian Band, have a very strong connection with the water and protecting salmon.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6313987\" data-originallang=\"en\">I would like to hear what the member has to say in regard to his motion.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6313984\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je remercie le d\u00e9put\u00e9 de son discours, du travail qu'il a accompli au comit\u00e9 de l'environnement au cours de la pr\u00e9sente l\u00e9gislature et de l\u00e9gislatures pr\u00e9c\u00e9dentes, ainsi que de ses efforts dans le dossier de l'eau douce.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6313985\" data-originallang=\"en\">Dans son discours de ce soir, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a parl\u00e9 de diverses choses. La protection de l'eau douce dans un pays aussi grand que le Canada comporte de nombreuses facettes. Ce dont le d\u00e9put\u00e9 n'a pas beaucoup parl\u00e9, ce sont les Premi\u00e8res Nations, surtout les pr\u00e9occupations entourant les droits issus de trait\u00e9s. Je viens de la Colombie-Britannique, o\u00f9 de nombreux trait\u00e9s n'ont pas encore fait l'objet de n\u00e9gociations.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6313986\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a parl\u00e9 du respect des comp\u00e9tences provinciales. Qu'en est-il des droits issus de trait\u00e9s? Qu'en est-il des Premi\u00e8res Nations, en particulier dans ma r\u00e9gion de l'Okanagan? Bon nombre des bandes indiennes qui s'y trouvent, en particulier la bande de Penticton et la bande indienne d'Osoyoos, ont un lien tr\u00e8s \u00e9troit avec l'eau et la protection du saumon.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6313987\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais savoir ce que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a \u00e0 dire au sujet de sa motion.</p>"
