Mr. Speaker, we have been dealing through -- you must forgive me, I forget the gentleman's name. He is a Japanese Canadian from Toronto who resides in Canada, and he is very familiar with Canada. What we have been doing is responding to their request from us for assistance in this particular regard. As I say, when these two gentlemen were here they were taken to all of the outlets in Yellowknife, and to the museum, to see what exactly was available to them.

I might add, Mr. Speaker, it is traditional for the Japanese to exchange gifts when they come here. It is ironic that the gift that I gave to Mr. Niimi was a birchbark basket made in Liard. Thank you.
