Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I realize that this boundary is for electoral districts only and it is not for land claims use. As all Members know, Treaty 8, especially Lutsel K'e had an issue about the eastern boundary of Nunavut and the western Arctic. I would like to encourage, and always encourage, that that be dealt with strictly between the chiefs and leaders of the people, and that it not be dealt with in this House. That is something they have to deal with with the federal government and I would like to encourage the chief of Lutsel K'e as well as the leaders of Baker Lake to get together and have a meeting to discuss usage on each side of the boundary. There was talk about that type of meeting, and I would like to encourage them to meet so they can eventually sign a peace treaty between the Baker Lake and Lutsel K'e people. Thank you.
