Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I thank the Member for the request. We would certainly be interested, and I know I have a very experienced and capable staff in the Sahtu region. We would be very interested in sitting down with traditional harvesters, and with industry, to discuss how we might move some of these issues forward and that might include, depending on what the parties are interested in, coming up with the harvesters' compensation model. Obviously, nothing can be binding, but if we can support the efforts of those harvesters and industry in finding some common ground, we are prepared to do that. I think it's a good idea. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
