Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I was going through the Hansard I mentioned earlier today, in 1994, the Minister appearing with his witness the deputy minister, was Mr. Kakfwi and Mr. Handley at the time. There was comment then about there having been three years since the promise had been made of a comprehensive review.
We have an awful lot of work to do at the self-government tables. Will we manage to get through to the point where the wildlife review is going to be concluded in the next year? I am not confident that that will happen. This process has dragged on for a long time. I know that there have been a number of issues raised today by Members that I would hope, if we could move it to the committee stage, that I would have an opportunity to address. I recognize that if I am not successful in addressing the issues in committee, I think I have heard loud and clear that it is not going to get any farther than that.
I am not confident that in the life of this government we will conclude the comprehensive review and see the legislation. This is an issue that has gone on since I have been elected in 1991. I would like to again urge Members to support this bill and to support sending it to the committee for consideration after second reading. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
