Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Encouraging words from the Minister. That's the point that I also wanted to talk about, is preparing the Sahtu region in terms of becoming a sustainable region. I know the federal government is a key component to helping us out here. If there's any mechanism or way that we can work closely with this department and the Sahtu people and put pressure on the federal government in terms of owning up to their obligations in terms of the land claims and self-government agreements and the ability to have the Sahtu region become a stand-alone region, I know it's going to come in time, but it's encouraging to hear from the Minister. I just wanted to make those comments, Mr. Chairman.
