Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is to the Minister in regard to the whole area of the land claims rights that this government, as a third party to those negotiations, have signed on to these land claim agreements. There are certain obligations that the Government of Canada has made, an obligation that this Government of the Northwest Territories has made, along with the aboriginal people, to uphold those land claim agreements. I would like to ask the Minister, has he considered looking at the implications of this court decision that presently is being dealt with and how it may jeopardize those inherent rights that flow from these land claims agreements under section 35?
