Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I believe the federal government has indicated they will be interested in protecting the Canadian constitutional rights of the citizens. I believe they indicated this by suggesting that any new constitution of the territory would have to conform with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Therefore, I presume the Minister's department will be more concerned with the democratic rights of the NWT residents at the territorial, municipal or community level. Is that correct?
