On the other hand, many said they did not wish to see more time spent on this issue. A councillor in Tuktoyaktuk remarked that he did not like the idea of the government coming back to re-examine the sunset clause every four years. The mayor of Fort Smith referred to the cost, in time and money, of seeking public input on this question, and a speaker at Fort Good Hope drew attention to the need to deal with many other issues facing communities: "These other issues are taking so much valuable time from the real problems -- social challenges facing the community." The mayor of Inuvik summed up this train of thought bluntly: "The government should repeal the clause and get on with governing."
