Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think, looking at the big picture, the direction that we have taken, that the Premier has taken, and that Cabinet is on in terms of the Intergovernmental Forum, the meetings with the Ministers in Ottawa and so on, is the right approach. When it comes down to more specific programs, like economic development, the fact that we do not have an economic development agreement, then I think the document the panel tabled last week on the economic strategy was the right direction.

We will get Northerners working together. We will keep using that document to continue to negotiate on an EDA, on the Protected Areas Strategy. We intend to follow that up. I intend to write to the Minister responsible for DIAND and remind him that we agreed to continue the interim resource management agreement funding at their request and we need them to honour their commitments.

Our money is just as scarce and hard to come by as is the federal government's. We need them to live up to their commitments in the same way that we are doing ours, even though it means some cutbacks. We will keep on following up on the pensioner fund and the mine clean-up. Our people are negotiating regularly in terms of our need to define what is our responsibility and what is their responsibility. We are ready, even with our tight budget, to honour our commitments and we honour DIAND to do the same thing on each of these areas. We are looking at the broad picture, but also at with dealing with each one of them individually and specifically. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
