Thank you. I think the honourable Member is referring to a land claims agreement with the Gwich'in, and in the implementation part of it, that is where this type of work would happen. In our study on land administration for the department, one area we identified that needs to be worked on is exactly what the honourable Member is talking about. There has not been the type of work put into the Gwich'in land claims implementation so far, with regard to trying to abide by the agreement. We realise, from the study, that there is quite a bit of work to be done. It is a backlog that needs to be cleaned up.
It may require a lot of work. It may even require changes to certain legislation, but we do not know right now. We are just initiating the work, the internal inter-departmental working group that I mentioned. That is one of the things that we will look at. Everything that is related to it, including the taxation that you are talking about, we are working with the Department of Finance as well. We are participating as a member of the inter-departmental working group, along with Justice and Aboriginal Affairs, and Finance. It is a task that we still have to do.
I cannot really answer you to see if we have done it or not. At this point, if some specific parts of it were a problem that arose, that were dealt with but generally, the overall implementation of that aspect of the Gwich'in claim has not been done. With this inter-departmental working group, we will try to develop a plan of action in how to resolve those outstanding issues. Thank you.
