Mr. Speaker, I appreciate what the Minister is saying, but the Minister has to recognize this event is approaching upon us very rapidly. I am not sure if Sport North or the government will have time to put a delegation together from the territories. Will these athletes have to compete at community, regional and territorial levels, similar to try-outs for Arctic winter games? I do not believe there is going to be sufficient time to do all of this. I wonder if Sport North or the department has looked at this whole issue as to how we are going to participate in the aboriginal games in Saskatchewan. It is strictly for aboriginal participation. The NWT has a high aboriginal content, so I hope the Minister would send a delegation to participate in these games.
