Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I understood that Mr. Funston was, indeed, representing the Government of the Northwest Territories. I was wondering if that was a slight contradiction in what had happened in this House before Christmas, when this House supported in motion form and debated the Calgary Declaration which then appeared before the Supreme Court on this issue. Does the Premier see both of those things in conjunction? Is that a contradiction, Mr. Speaker, the one main point being in favour of the Calgary Declaration, the other one appearing saying that Quebec does not have the opportunity, legally or whatever to take itself out of the federation?
