Madam Speaker, one of the things I did not do particularly in the legislation is call on the government to spend more money on anything. I did not want to get into debate about how much we spend, whether it is enough and all of those different things. Clearly, there are challenges and clearly we need to do more in indigenous communities on a lot of fronts and education is absolutely one of them. Whatever government is in power, whatever Parliament we have in place going forward, this motion says that when we take steps, when we spend money as a federal government on education, clear consideration must be given to the inclusion of people with disabilities, including people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. It is absolutely critical in this motion, whenever we have those important conversations, that this is part of the conversation.
