Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The reason I am asking about the funding for the Intergovernmental Forum is just it seems to be on the same one third, two thirds formula that had been used previously to fund constitutional discussions. One of the arguments there that the government said that, when agreeing to a territorial government contribution to constitutional discussions, was that they covered everybody in the Territories.
We have long maintained that the federal government has a fiduciary responsibility to fund the setting in place of aboriginal governments, which is something that the resourcing of which we are talking about at this table for Intergovernmental Forum. That is why I am wondering, have we at least made the case in offering this funding? Have we taken the step of making sure that we reiterate that this government does not or should not have to bear the cost of implementation, and that in fact it is a fiduciary responsibility of the federal government? Where they opened the door, by precedent here, to now falling into the trap that the federal government could have been setting here to say we do have some responsibility? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
