(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a question to the Minister of Finance. Perhaps the Minister of Finance could answer my question. I have raised this issue before. I know that hunters were provided assistance and this program no longer exists. Can the Minister of Finance, who has stated before that they would try to deal with this issue, tell this House when he will be providing assistance to the hunters? Or, will he be taking this question as notice? Perhaps in 1995, they will be dealing with this issue. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Good afternoon. Mr. Speaker, special ARDA was discontinued some years ago and I know that a lot of hunters and trappers in the Northwest Territories thought that that was a great program and that it provided them with some contributions to get out on the land and fish, hunt or trap. We have looked at the reasons why we took away special ARDA on several occasions by Renewable Resources. I will again go back to the Minister and ask him if there is a way to resurrect this program with the federal government and see, maybe in cooperation with Mr. Todd, if there is something that can be done in that regard. So I will pass it on to the Minister of Renewable Resources, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
