(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will support my friend's question. There have been some recent studies using this type of drug to put them to sleep. This has been a concern by Inuit people for quite a long time. In addition to what he had already stated, is this a hazard to the health of the people if they consume it after three or four days? There has never been a study as to whether they are a health hazard after they have had this type of drug. After this study is concluded, will we be able to inform the people of the communities how dangerous the drug is to the people who consume the polar bears?
