Thank you, Mr. Speaker. There has been agreement, I believe, by this Legislature that we will proceed with development in a well thought-out way. That is reflected in the agenda. I believe there was support following the unanimous motion of support given by the aboriginal leadership in January of 2000. There was a direction of support given by this Legislature in March, I believe, but we would have to look back on the Hansard for that statement of support.

I have taken the unanimous motion, which was followed by signatures of every chief and Metis and Inuvialuit leader in the Northwest Territories, in support of the motion that came out of Liard in January of 2000. It was followed by a memorandum of understanding in June that led to the establishment of the Aboriginal Pipeline Working Group.

That has been the mandate and the direction that I have followed. I believe I have followed it very well. Thank you.
