Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Let me restate once again that we do have the authority and we acted on it with very great care and, in our belief, a very measured way. The issue that the Member talks about, resource developments have gone through full environmental assessments, permitting and the regulatory process and have received their approval to operate. While there is some broader issue coming to light as people look at the affects of cumulative impacts that is yet to be dealt with. But all those projects went through a process that fully engaged all Northerners, all the aboriginal governments and we followed that every step of the way. The outfitters and the time when the numbers were higher were in business but, at this point, there is no harvest but aboriginal harvest in the North Slave. With the Tlicho that covers the area of the Bluenose-East, the Bathurst and with the Ahiak as well are present.
