Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. I have a question for the Minister of Justice on the firearms. Federal Minister Allan Rock did make some visits to the north, and during his visit to Yellowknife, he met with the Caucus and he also met with the public. During these discussions, there was strong emphasis, especially from us, that there be exemptions in their registration process, particularly for aboriginal people or people who are general hunting licence holders. Currently, people who purchase firearms acquisition certificates are exempted from the fees. My question to the Minister is, are there any exemptions for northerners in the registration provisions of the proposed federal bill?
