Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Maybe on some of the items, in case the Premier is not aware, is the whole Gwich'in and Porcupine concerns, with regard to the 10-02 lands in Alaska, which basically arise out of that caribou herd, which travels between three jurisdictions. It is one of the main food consumptions of the Gwich'in in the Northwest Territories. So, whatever happens to that herd in Alaska will have a bearing on the people of the Northwest Territories. That is one issue. The other area that can be possibly looked at, is the economics of trading barriers between the different aboriginal groups in Alaska, and the Yukon, to being able to trade across the boundary between the United States and Canada, the ability of trading gifts or bringing items from Canada into Alaska, which is part of the United States.
There are international agreements in regard to the restriction of certain animal products and restriction in regard to fur items and things like that, which could be possibly looked at by this government. So, when you do meet on these trade missions between Canada and the United States and talk about Free Trade, this could be one of the issues you could assist with, through the Prime Minister of Canada, by making him aware these issues are still a barrier on aboriginal people in Canada. So, when there is a lobbying effort by aboriginal groups as a whole regardless of where they live, their concerns will be taken into account.
So those are some of the items I was talking about that this government can seriously look at in regard to assisting these groups when we talk about bilateral arrangements between the jurisdictions.
