Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Last year there was a study done in the Grise Fiord Kane Basin with the polar bear program, and that study is completed for that area. So this year, this spring we will have the first of a three-year program. The program will work to estimate the population size of the polar bears in the Gulf of Boothia, so hunters from Repulse Bay, Pelly Bay, Igloolik and Gjoa Haven will be involved in this study this spring. Thank you.
