(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Chairman. As you have heard, the TFN president was accused before the court. I do not want to state that again, but the acting president, Louis Pilakapsi, is capable and he has been with TFN for a long time. This is not going to affect the activities of the TFN and their ultimate goals and objectives.

I think the MLAs from Nunavut will have to welcome him and keep open the lines of communication and to accept him as such. I do not want anybody in this House thinking that TFN is going in a different direction than before. They are still going to be working for us, and by no means have their responsibilities been lessened. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
