Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am not certain I can confirm that, but I do know that in the case of the Inuit as well as the Dene, they have hunted and harvested wildlife here for thousands of years and have done so in a way that respected the wildlife, and there was some management regime in place to ensure that the wildlife was never over-harvested. I believe that the Nunavut Wildlife Board is moving to ensure that they manage with the harvesters, with public interest groups, and the private sector to manage that particular area in the interest of everyone. I believe that they put their management plan forward believing that is what they have done in the best way possible. Thank you.
