Mr. Speaker, I was of the view that, without wanting to prejudice the discussion that could happen within the membership of the Dene Nation, the Metis Nation and the other aboriginal organizations, we should allow these groups and organizations to take the lead in the discussions. I think we would all benefit as a Legislature if we allowed, for instance, the Dene Nation and the Metis Assembly this summer to discuss it, since they have some equal ownership to the recommendations and observations contained within the report. Politically, I thought it would be wiser for us to allow that to happen. Then perhaps we could have our own discussion in the fall session. Thank you.
