Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I had breakfast this morning with Ms. Sabet Biscaye, who is doing some work for the Akaitcho territory with the Chipewyan language initiative and plan that they are putting together. It was she who raised the issue to me. I must confess this was an issue I was unaware of, but when I look at the letter, it is very clear the reference is to registered Indians and registered Inuvialuit. I would like to ask the Minister, given the fact that we are passing this budget and that formulas for aboriginal languages have been allocated based on a formula that seems to have a flaw or gap in it, an omission, how long would it take to get a response? Will it be before we deal with this budget? Thank you.
