Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, there are occasions when the Government of the Northwest Territories requires an interpretation of a treaty to determine the application of a program. For some issues, there is an interpretation that both parties to the treaties agree with. However, for other unresolved issues, the federal government takes a very different interpretation than the aboriginal groups. In those cases, does the Government of the Northwest Territories adopt the federal interpretation or the aboriginal interpretation?
