Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development. Mr. Speaker, the Honourable Minister had made a reply to an oral question that I had asked him on April 30th concerning the alternative mining technology in relation to the Diavik diamond project. I had asked the Minister what was the government's position on the use of alternative mining technology to carry out this project. The Minister, in his reply, had indicated that, as required by the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, proponents are required to consider any alternative means for carrying out the project which are technically and economically feasible, et cetera. However, he neglected to answer my question. I was just wondering, if the Minister did not answer my question, what is the government's position on the use of alternative mining technology, does that mean that the department does not have a position on Diavik using alternative mining technology to carry out their project? Thank you.
