Last year was the first year of a pilot project to do a commercial hunt of caribou in Coral Harbour. It was specifically designed there because we knew the herd was increasing at a rate that would make it vulnerable. As I said earlier, we need to get this meat federally inspected. That then gives us an opportunity to sell our caribou beyond territorial borders. It is our intent to try to accomplish that this year. If so, we're optimistic that we can, perhaps, sell more of this caribou in southern Canada and, possibly, offshore in Greenland and in the USA. Thank you.
