Thank you. Madam Speaker, under our existing legislation I think the government can ask for a legal opinion on the constitutionality of anything. In this case, I'm asking whether or not our payroll tax, as it relates to the Dene Nation, doesn't violate anything. I'm just asking the Minister whether or not, under our Legal Opinions Act, I think it's called, the government has sought anything under that act.
