Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Our first initial meeting with David Peterson, I do not know what date it was but it was about three weeks ago when we first realized that there was a problem. It is a serious concern to all of us. We were hoping that he would have the full mandate to talk about devolution as well as net fiscal benefits. Our intention here is to pursue it and we informed the Aboriginal Summit. They are fully aware of this situation and the intention here is to work together, both with Manley and Nault to see if we could fix this concern before we get any further down the line. If we do not, then we will have to decide at that point in time if it is worth pursuing in the form that it is in. Thank you.
