Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I agree with the Minister that I hope we do not see large fires, since we seem to put less value on our forest and our wildlife, Mr. Speaker. We are reviewing draft acts that are looking at species at risk right now. How do we know which species are at risk when we do not even know where they are? How do we know if we are not protecting those species that are at risk if we just allow the forest to be burned?
I would like to ask the Minister, would his department go back to the communities and reassess what is valuable? A trapper for six years waiting for the trap line to come back, what is he going to do? He cannot go to another place because he cannot afford to sell or move.
If he was compensated, maybe he could go down that route. Those are the concerns and the questions that are asked of me by my constituents and Northerners. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
