Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We have been on record, many times, as saying that we will work with our aboriginal partners on all land issues in the Northwest Territories and with aboriginal groups. I think it is proper to say that we would not entertain from the farmers' association, a proposal without consulting with aboriginal First Nations and aboriginal groups, in that area. If people in that area would work together, I know, previously that economic development was working with the farmers' association to develop this agriculture policy for that area, but how far that work has gone, I do not know. So, I would have to look into it. It would have to be in conjunction with aboriginal people in that area, as well. Thank you.
