Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I guess there were several steps here involved in this whole issue of payment in lieu of taxes to the city. First of all, it was to establish the land tenure. I think that has been established by the notation of reserve. The next step is to confirm whether INAC was going to honour the tenure and its obligations. They are consulting with their superiors. We expect them to come back with a confirmation on this. We will raise it again. We have been raising it on an ongoing basis. It is an issue that we are concerned about. We will continue to raise it. We will have more discussion with the federal government. We will also ask that our chair of the oversight committee bring it to their attention again and have more discussions to have some settlement to this issue. Thank you.
