Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the Dene Schineyea in northern Manitoba, there is a dispute right now with them and the federal government. These matters are currently before the federal court in litigation of Chief Simon Samuel versus the Government of Canada, the Government of the Northwest Territories and Tunngavik Federation in Nunavut. As such, it would be probably inappropriate for me to comment directly on these matters at this time. It is a complicated issue and, if need be, I will gather all the pertinent information and provide the background information to the honourable Member asking the question. Thank you.
