Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It is confusing in my region, in the Sahtu, in terms of how the traditional economy is being looked at. It is being looked at as a business. Mr. Speaker, quite frankly, traditional economy in communities is a lifestyle. It is a way of life. To put that in terms of business, it is pretty hard sometimes. Having the ENR already being responsible for tags for hunters and outfitters, would it be more effective to have a department say okay, let's move them into one once and for all. Let's move it over there for the harvesters' programs that ITI is administering now. It makes more sense; a simple process, I hope the Minister would give this some consideration to. When will the Minister report back, in terms of having some discussion as to a possible move? Thank you.
