Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Renewable Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development. I have been informed that the officers from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, when they are in uniform, they wear guns, but I understand that at times these individuals are in the downtown area of Yellowknife, for example, going into the buildings. I am wondering if the Minister could tell us if he has the ability to find out why they are allowed to carry guns, for example, in the City of Yellowknife. Are there other officers from perhaps our government or other federal government agencies permitted to carry sidearms? Thank you.
