Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Certainly the Member is right and anything that has the Bennett Dam has, and anything that impacts on the Peace and Athabasca systems which eventually makes its way to Great Slave, to the Slave River and up into the Mackenzie Delta I think is of critical importance to this government, critical importance to the people of the Northwest Territories. We will certainly press the case for a seat at the table where development could potentially have a negative or adverse impact on the Mackenzie River Basin. Again, I would reiterate that Minister Miltenberger, when he meets on June 8th with Pearl Calahasen, will raise this issue and sit down and press the case. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
