(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. That is a good question that was raised. At this point the High Arctic people would have a polar bear plan for the communities in agreement with the communities. Resolute Bay, Grise Fiord, Arctic Bay and Pond Inlet have an agreement in place regarding polar bears. If there was to be a polar bear caught out of season, especially when the polar bear was being a nuisance, the community would be compensated for that particular bear. I expect if there was to be a polar bear cub trapped accidentally, this community would be compensated for this bear that was accidentally harvested. I cannot say for sure today. If this polar bear that was harvested accidentally would be taken off the quota. Thank you.
