Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I want to reaffirm. I didn't say that in the context that I'm against the pipeline or in the context that I'm against resource development, because I have significant environmental concerns as well as economic concerns. Until we get that control, we can't control either of them. We're in a difficult situation.
Mr. Speaker, the Premier had spoken about partnerships. I'd like to hear from him today about what is he doing with our local Dene Nation of the Northwest Territories or aboriginal groups to reach outside of the Territories and say, well, wait a minute, let's contact the AFN. They're a huge lobby group and they would morally help us fight for our rights. What about talking to guys like Buzz Hargrove? They have a huge membership and that would deliver a massive statement. What are we doing about delivering a message in the Globe and Mail, a full page to say the NWT has come of age, give us our rights back, or give us our rights to start with, Mr. Speaker.
So what is the Premier doing to advocate that and build those partnerships? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
