Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this concerns the arsenic trioxide that came out of Giant Mine when they were processing their gold here in Yellowknife. This very poisonous product is stored underground under Yellowknife in the old Giant Mine. As we all know, the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs has been doing a study and they are signalling that sometime this fall they will be coming out with recommendations on the management of this arsenic trioxide stored underground in Giant Mine in Yellowknife. At this time we do not know what those recommendations will be. However, there is a lot of discussion and the options are being narrowed down. We do not know at this time what those recommendations are going to be. Thank you.
