Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It is my understanding that negotiations are ongoing between BHP, Treaty 8, and Treaty 11 this weekend. The Metis Nation go back to the table. I believe they are on the 9th or 10th of this month. Negotiations on environmental agreement per se is pretty well concluded, as well as negotiations with BHP on the socio-economic conditions are fairly close to being concluded. Today is the final day of negotiations. It is my understanding that all parties are still at the table. All parties are working close to 24 hours a day. It seems to me from the information I have from my staff, that all parties are trying to come to an agreement. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
