Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I thank the Minister for that response. I find it very favourable and I am glad to hear that the department recognizes the fact that the Inuvialuit have contributed far more than anyone else in allowing their lands to be used for parks, both federal and territorial, and for areas of protected wildlife. My concern, Mr. Speaker, is in the future are we going to have to address specific concerns drawn up by Friends of the Earth or Greenpeace through the Protected Area Strategy rather than simply dealing with it through the existing boards and agencies set up by the Inuvialuit under their agreement? That is my concern right now, Mr. Speaker.
