Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, caribou for the aboriginal people is especially important as the sole food for our people here. Ninety percent of the households of the aboriginal people have reported that they consume country foods. Seventy percent hunt and fish. Twenty-five percent still hunt and trap in this area. Wildlife in the Northwest Territories is the most precious resource. In saying this, I would like to ask the Minister, what is he doing to renewable resource boards in terms of monitoring this caribou population in the regions that are affected? Thank you.
