Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this climate change is a big issue for us in the North. Our elders are telling us that they are seeing a lot of changes, and certainly to the whole development of the climate change issue throughout the world, we have been following it and have been very supportive of the Kyoto Protocol.

Our position as a government is that we support global and local action to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. That is the position of this government. Global action includes the Kyoto Protocol as well. Thank you.
