Mahsi, Madam Speaker. In my Member's statement today I talked about the relationship between the Crown and the Dene people. The relationship that has developed, without the total consent of treaty Indians, is that this government has taken over a lot of the programs and services from the federal responsibility. Some of these programs and services are in the process of being transferred to the community level, through the community transfer initiative. I guess the question here is, has the Minister and his department ever come out with a position on how to deal with the fiduciary obligations, to treaty Indians, of the federal government and how that is going to be reflected in the community transfer initiatives? Mahsi.
