Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in my discussions with the president of the South Slave Metis Tribal Council, I indicated that this issue could not be dealt with in isolation between the department and the South Slave Metis Tribal Council. I subsequently, coming to Yellowknife, have written to the three Metis organizations to invite them to the table in March to look at how this program is doing, given the fact that it was initially conceived under the Metis Nation and things have changed since then. I want and need the benefit of their input and advice in terms of any changes that may be contemplated which would have to be discussed and agreed to and taken to Cabinet. Very clearly, there is a need to have all the players at the table. Thank you.
