Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is in regard to the disappearing Peary caribou and it is addressed to the Minister of RWED. Mr. Speaker, in the past few years, and in particular in the past month or so, there has been a lot of focus on the disappearing Peary caribou. I believe a document was put out by Greenpeace stating that the disappearing caribou were directly related to global warming. Some of their information or statements is based on information that they quote as having come from this government's biologists. They quote as one of the main reasons for the disappearing of Peary caribou is the depth of the snow and the inability of the caribou to reach the food through the snow. I would like to ask the Minister of RWED if that in fact is the opinion of his department?
