Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we have been very careful in the way we make the overtures and the approaches. As you know, based on what was written about a visit that I made to Calgary with the Premier at the beginning of this year, certain members of the Aboriginal Summit abruptly called for my resignation and that of the Premier as well, based on what they perceived for me to have said based on the newspaper article. We have said to the Aboriginal Summit, and we have said to the Inuvialuit and the
Gwich'in leaders, the chiefs of the Sahtu and the Sahtu Secretariat earlier this year that we are offering to share the ownership of land and resources with them. We are offering to share the revenues from subsurface resources with them.
How do we do it? How much is their share? We have not done any work, not even preliminary work, to look at that because it is, at this time, a suggestion. We would not want the aboriginal leaders to think that this is a preplanned, pre-programmed agenda that we are offering to work with them. We can compile with them the information needed so they can make decisions about what should be the mechanism for sharing of revenues and whether it should be done region by region, whether it should be done as a general interest, whatever approach it is, it will be done through joint discussions. So, Mr. Speaker, there are no documents, there is no preliminary research done on this. We are waiting for a positive response, a definitive response from the aboriginal governments, and we are proceeding and waiting to move with them as they would indicate. Thank you.
