Thank you, Mr. Speaker. To the Minister of Justice, Mr. Speaker. I think that under his leadership, progress was made this week in making the federal Minister and federal MPs aware of the disastrous consequences of proceeding with Bill C-68 without major amendments, at least the disastrous consequences in the Northwest Territories.

I would like to ask the Minister if he could outline what further steps he will be taking to drive this point home in Ottawa and particularly whether the Minister will be making further representations to the House of Commons Standing Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs with other Justice Ministers to reinforce points we have already made as a Caucus subcommittee.
