Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Aboriginal Affairs, Mr. Antoine. The subject of the constitution has arisen again in the last week in some public discussions. I believe that in the South Slave, it was the subject of discussion at a leaders' meeting. The Town of Hay River has passed a motion stating that the constitution should be delayed until after division. I wonder if the Minister could tell us what the urgency is at this particular time considering the amount of work facing this Legislature with division and some other matters that of an urgent nature, what the necessity is to complete, and what is driving the need to achieve a new constitution by April 1, 1999. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
