(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am not clear on the question. However, the hunters and trappers in the N.W.T. have supported and protected them through funding. Through the hunters' and trappers' associations, the old traps are presently being replaced and the trappers will continue to trap to sell. In 1984-85, the prices for the skins were very low: pelts were $20. During our meeting, we had agreed to come up with a committee to do a study on the grey seals, and to work on the cost of the pelts and the meat. We agreed that the Ministers would form a committee and, during this week, I stated that the working group will be working on the recommendations and that they will be meeting in January to talk about seals.
In the N.W.T., within the territorial government, we are also setting up a fur strategy committee. We are working on that, and I will also be working on recommendations on harp seals. The department is setting up a proposal to be presented to the federal government. This has now gone to our Cabinet and I will be asking for funding so that the pelts will be once again can be sold in Canada. Thank you.
