Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development. He stated earlier that his view is that we have to have inclusion where everyone is on board. Yet, Mr. Speaker, in 1994, it's clear from the statement that I read from the committee that it had been 10 years since the Inuvialuit agreement was signed. "The Northwest Territories have seen three more land claims agreements signed in that period for the Gwich'in, the Sahtu and Nunavut. The committee is concerned with the length of time that it has taken for this government to expedite legislation concerning claimant groups."

I'd like to ask the Minister why is it that now we're using a different practice, where in 1994 this government passed Inuvialuit land claims legislation to enact the wildlife agreement, yet at that time there were three land claims agreements in place. Why is it that now we're having to have everybody included in making that decision?
