Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I indicated earlier in the Session, regarding trying to clarify positions in the government with respect to the Dogrib negotiations, in this case, all of the tougher issues are left to the last. This is what we are encountering right now.

The negotiations are on track. According to the agreements we had, there are years of negotiation sessions. I think we are on track here. There are different positions tabled on different issues to be discussed. There are opposing views in most cases. The intention at the negotiating table is to try to come together, a meeting of minds. There is a waiting aspect.

The federal government is involved. In this case, we are waiting for them to table some of their key positions. We, as the Government of the Northwest Territories, are also working very hard at some of the key issues. I think we are making some progress. Thank you.
