I am not familiar with the Yukon model at all. The Yukon is a different jurisdiction and we have more complicated arrangements with the different First Nations. We have land claims agreements with the Inuvialuit, which is separate and different from the Gwich'in and the Sahtu. We have the Salt River First Nation that has claims. So it's negotiating with the aboriginal governments like the Tlicho, Akaitcho, the South Slave Metis and the Deh Cho that makes it even more complicated. That's why we have an obligation in the NWT to address issues with non-beneficiaries as well. To compare Yukon to us, I understand Yukon has one umbrella agreement that encompasses all 14 First Nations. I understand there are some that haven't gone into that agreement yet, so there are differences there. To compare is different.

I think what they are driving at is, Yukon went with the concept of hiring an outside independent drafter and that process is outside the mandate I have. Cabinet directed me to take a direct approach on how they do legislation here. So that's the dilemma that I find RWED in, in this case, as well as the fact that we are pretty far down the process already to make any changes. Within the parameters that we have, I have instructed RWED to try to work with the Inuvialuit Game Council to see if we could accommodate their concern of having their own legal counsel directly involved in the actual drafting of the Government of the Northwest Territories bill. Thank you.
