Thank you, Madam Speaker. I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Renewable Resources, Mr. Arngna'naaq. Yesterday, I asked a question regarding the toxins in the river, and I really didn't receive any kind of answer to that question except to say that he cannot respond with absolute surety at this point what the level of toxins are in the river. Then he went on to say, during my last question and my final supplementary, that he was the first one to sign the agreement and the Minister of Indian Affairs and Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon territory have yet to sign the agreement. But I also asked whether or not this government is doing anything regarding the quality of water on the Mackenzie River, and there doesn't seem to be any response or any kind of indication that the government is in fact doing anything about the quality of water on the Mackenzie-Slave River system. I would like to ask the Minister if there is anything that this government is doing to ensure the level of safety with regard to toxins in the waters.
