Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Premier. Mr. Speaker, last April, in 1994, the Dene-Metis Holdings of Fort Smith sent a letter to the committee of deputy ministers which reflected a meeting in the fall of 1993, which was basically about the need for Dene-Metis Holdings to become involved in the development of proposed hangar maintenance facilities. Then, in July, another letter was sent to the then Minister of DPW requesting negotiations to start which, apparently, they have never received a formal response to. However, Mr. Speaker, the Dene-Metis learned through discussions and news releases that the NWT Metis National Assembly in Fort Norman would be given the entire project for the provision of operation, maintenance, and service for the CL-215, birdogs and heavy land bases. I would like to ask the Premier what intergovernmental and external consultation process was used in the formation of the government action plan to obtain services for the operation and maintenance of the CL-215s, heavy land-based water bombers and birdog aircraft in carrying out its mandate to fight forest fires? Thank you.
