Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just want to reiterate that the question was asked of the Minister of Aboriginal Affairs to look into this situation, and I am sure he will have his officials do that. As well, my officials have been talking to some of the officials in the Dogrib region to see if alternatives can be worked out and how we can proceed on this. It is not as though we are turning a completely blind eye to the whole situation, Mr. Chairman, but I do have to respect the intent of the policy and the regulations that are in place. Thank you.
