Mr. Speaker, in a couple of weeks the trapping season is going to start up in Inuvik, and that’s when all the trappers go out and do their muskrat trapping. It’s been a way of life for many years. But this year we might be running into some problems if we don’t get our gas issue taken care of and dealt with.

I’d like to direct my questions today to the Premier. I’d like to ask him what the government is doing to help mediate the fuel shortage in Inuvik.
