Thank you, Mr. Speaker. You know, I think the point should be argued there are some groups that really do have a principal, fundamental, front-line role in this kind of thing. Mr. Speaker, this group of business people brings, through their clients, several millions of dollars into the NWT a year. They harvest less than one percent of the kill. Each animal they take is estimated to have a value to the Northwest Territories economy of $4,000. What influence can the Minister use to make sure that their voice is included, at a more formal and earlier stage, in these management planning exercises? Thank you.
