Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, my honourable colleague is correct, I did meet with Mr. Amagoalik and some of his staff last Friday, in the late afternoon. I appreciated him taking the time because he had just come out of the hospital and, frankly, he didn't look very well when I saw him, but he did take the time to meet. We did discuss a number of topics as they relate to NIC's workplan that is coming forth over the summer. I did express to him the concern that was being expressed by my colleague and other colleagues across the Nunavut landscape about the decentralized model and if there would be a continuation of that. He assured me that that was going to be the primary thrust of the second report of NIC, and looked forward to working cooperatively with us to try to finalize the blueprint for a new decentralized Nunavut government on April 1, 1999.
