Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My written question is for the Minister responsible for Renewable Resources. Mr. Speaker, it is a fact that many people in the North Slave region wish to continue their traditional lifestyle, and engage in hunting, trapping and fishing as an occupation. Furthermore, they are committed to passing this way of life on to future generations.

My question for the Minister responsible for Renewable Resources, is what practical research has been undertaken during the time the Minister has been responsible for this department which focuses specifically on a future of hunting, fishing and trapping in the north? Thank you.
