Thank you, Mr. Chair. It is important to speak directly to aboriginal governments and aboriginal leaders. I think that is the most important thing, in response to Mr. Nitah's question. I made a commitment to meet with the Yellowknives and Deh Cho leaders to hear from them directly on what it is that they are setting as their goals and objectives. I would get briefed from the government's side.
That is the way to proceed. We hear directly from each other, and there is a commitment to meet for two or three days with each party to be clear and to assure them we have really heard what their position in division is. We have an opportunity to ask questions, for them to discuss ways in which these can be achieved and move along. That is what the commitment is, and that is the way to start.
There is a firm belief and support that the aboriginal leaders also support the intergovernmental forum. It is a forum where aboriginal governments will sit with the territorial and federal governments to discuss issues between governments.
I think it is a tremendous idea, and it will set the basis for establishing the relationships we all want to see developed. That is the forum that is going to do it. Thank you.
