Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just on the Quebec situation, I would like to ask the Minister if he has considered whether the Northwest Territories government should have a role or should be involved, or can assist in the proposed planning of the pan-Inuit referendum that has been recommended by ITC to take place around the time of the Quebec referendum. Since we want to promote the special interests of the Inuit and the people of the Northwest Territories, in case Quebec should separate, I wonder if there is a role for our government to assist in this referendum. We have an election machine and we have a Plebiscite Act that have been used in the past for these kinds of major questions. I just wonder if the Minister has any comments on that issue. Thank you.
