Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I do not know what kinds of presentations were made to the UN rapporteur. We are not subject to the presentations he received and that will be something we should look into. If there are areas where we feel we should be explaining ourselves and the different concerns that may have been raised from the different personations, like the example the honourable Member made of Treaty 8 promises that were made that they would not have to pay taxes. I know this is a very important outstanding issue for treaty people in the Northwest Territories and in Canada. This government does not have a position on it, but we see it as a bilateral process between the First Nations and the federal government. We need to get further information on what kind of presentations were made to the UN rapporteur. Thank you.
