Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the broad strategy by our count is a total of about $4.5 million over the next few years. We are taking the first 500-and-some-thousand for '05-06 out of the fire suppression surplus that we had turned back and we made the case to Cabinet, FMBS, and they said because it's an important issue, take that money out of there.

The second piece for '06-07 was too late for the main estimates. We were given approval to put that into the first supp for the '06-07 year. The rest of the funding is going to come forward and we will be building it into our business plans. We have been consulting now since just after April last year with all the co-management boards up and down the valley, along with the outfitters, the Metis, the Yellowknives, the folks in this area. If you look at that nine-page interim measures document that I gave everybody, the co-management boards from WMAC, the Gwich'in, the Sahtu, have given us very, very clear specific recommendations about what they want done. They want the counts redone; they want targets set. They have set some very, very stringent quotas of their own in their areas. They want to work with us to come up with a broader plan but, first and foremost, they want us to confirm the numbers. We committed to do that and we are doing the same with the Bathurst herd, as well as the Beverly and Qamanirjuaq caribou. So they haven't been counted excessively. One of the problems is that there hasn't been, with the Beverly and Qamanirjuaq, for example, a census for many, many years. It's a very important issue and we need the numbers. That's the commitment. This is going to be money, in my opinion, extremely well spent. The co-management boards have been very supportive, as have most of the groups that we've dealt with to make sure that we take the right proactive steps. Thank you.
