Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In regard to the whole area of your department, the whole question about affirmative action and your department in which a lot of the positions that are there are basically community based in regard to economic development officers, the forest fire centre, people in the energy sector; so, I would like to ask the Minister in regard to the whole idea of affirmative action which we have been mentioning time and time again in the House to ensure that the numbers are increasing, not decreasing, and that we uphold statistics of trying to improve on the affirmative action policy and putting in place in all departments, especially the departments where they serve the aboriginal community the most. I would like to ask the Minister in regard to that area, how does he feel his department is doing and what has been done to improve it?
