Thank you, Mr. Chairman. First of all, I would like to convey on behalf of my colleagues that we concur that this was a dual effort from both sides to try to reach the objectives, and I see that we will agree to the majority of the proposed subject matters before us in the bill. The importance of Mr. Krutko's comments is that there is, from our perspective, and we state the importance of promoting respect for and observance of human rights in the Northwest Territories while at the same time promoting respect for an observance of the aboriginal treaty rights of the aboriginal peoples. Perhaps I am going to ask the Chair if my colleague, Ms. JanisCooper, can respond to that more in the legislative detail.
