Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Last week, there was quite a bit of press about a decision that was reached in an Ontario court regarding the status or the rights of Metis people in Canada. Things have been busy around here and I have not paid too much attention to it, but it seemed to be something that may have a significant effect in terms of benefits that Metis people in the Northwest Territories may be entitled to and also impacts on this government in the way services are delivered to those people. These are impressions that I have. I am wondering, Mr. Chair, if the Minister may be able to give us a bit of a scope to what extent, if any, does this Ontario court decision about the Metis people effect what's going to happen here in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
