Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Obviously a serious concern for all of us in this building and for all of the residents of the Northwest Territories, Mr. Speaker. I cannot imagine a government wanting to negotiate control, responsibility and authority for things like onshore oil and gas and minerals without the revenues that would flow from these activities, Mr. Speaker. It seems absolutely absurd. Would the Minister not agree?
