Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My question is regarding some court cases in southern Canada, especially when it comes to aboriginal rights, especially in New Brunswick, British Columbia, in which they clearly identify it in regard to the rights for aboriginal people regarding subsistence, harvesting of trees and also the question about extinguishment. I would like to ask the Minister, has his department taken a look at these court rulings and how he could implicate what goes on in the territories, especially decisions that are made by governments by giving out timber licences where areas have not been surrendered yet through claims or what not?
