Thank you, Madam Speaker. I thank the Minister for that. It seems to me that in the Northwest Territories where the traditional life-style, because of the attacks by the anti-fur industry, is not providing enough sustenance to maintain people. It seems to me that there is a tremendous opportunity here in the Northwest Territories to make a case to the federal government that can provide some sort of a combination of the traditional pursuits and the wage economy, I think we could probably provide a very interesting model here. I wonder if the Minister is looking at that sort of an innovative approach to take advantage of our unique situation here in the Northwest Territories.
