Mr. Speaker, I feel that the previous Minister did take a forceful position by preparing a position paper to be presented to identify the areas of concern which have been put forward and the need to look at the north in a circumpolar concept, and deciding on future policy and strategic military decisions. Mr. Speaker, we certainly did anticipate or expect to be consulted, be knowledgeable and be told about any reinstatement. Even though we did receive an October, 1991, response to our draft paper, we did feel that there would be some honour and respect paid to the concerns of Northwest Territories' residents and that we would continue to try to agree on a set of guidelines which would satisfy the residents. Mr. Speaker, in the relationship with the Department of National Defence, as the honourable Member knows, this particular segment of the Government of Canada tends to have a very insulated activity mandate where they do not really like interference on the mandate of what they call "peace and security." Mr. Speaker, I had hoped that we would have a detailed response in reply to the response from the Department of National Defence on our issue paper for November, 1993. I hope the honourable Member knows that, as Government Leader, I am fully aware of the issues which this House has raised and the position which people feel in regard to having no involvement and no input into terms of particular cruise missile testing and military activity. However, Mr. Speaker, we will continue to try to press for recognition, and we will do this in any way we can. Thank you.
