Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In regard to the whole idea that is put forth in the Western Transitional Document, this is a similar arrangement that presently has been negotiated with the east in regard to the Nunavut Act, which is developing a political structure which consists of the geographic makeup of Nunavut to allow Inuit people to be trained to eventually take over government and senior positions within government. Why is this arrangement not similar in regard to allowing the west to do the same thing with the aboriginal organizations in the Western Territory?
