Mr. Chairman, I understand what the Member is asking and we can put together a chart or some sort of sheet that would show where all the expenditures are made by this government, for instance in implementing the TFN, the Gwich'in and the Inuvialuit claims. We can indicate which are as a result of work we are doing on behalf of the federal government, which we get back. We can indicate which monies are as a result of our participation in these agreements and detail other figures.
The Member mentions the $3 million going to the TFN claim. That was done as part of this government's commitment to support the TFN's call to establish a wildlife harvesters' assistance program. In the course of negotiations, the federal government had turned that down and it was a major setback. The previous government had committed to cost-share such a program and the agreement was we would contribute $15 million over a five year period, at $3 million a year, to a trust fund while the TFN would provide and match the same amount. The trust fund is to be administered by a board which would come up with ways that the money would be used to support wildlife harvesters, hunters and trappers, in the Nunavut area.
