Mr. Speaker, the money allocated was done on the basis of trying to initially supplement in support of the Nunavut claims settlement. It is primarily intended to benefit the aboriginal harvesters since the money, at least 50 percent of the money, is being contributed by the recipient. The original intent was to initiate this program in support of the settlement of the Nunavut claim. Thank you.
