Yes, Mr. Chairman. The suggestion that I have made in this House a number of times now in response to questions from Mr. Pudlat and others is that there has been no consistent basis for the funding given to regional HTAs. No one has addressed it for a number of years. It came up in January to this novice Minister and I was asked in very short order to fix what has been an historical imbalance in the consistency of funding allocation. I don't propose to do it. I have been suggesting, in rather flattering terms, that the new wildlife management board of Nunavut should be the one to suggest ways to remedy that, since they will also be receiving funds for management of wildlife from a number of other areas. That is the role of this Nunavut wildlife board. Next week, there will be a meeting of this board and we will be asking this question to be put to them. Thank you.
