Mr. Chairman, I am from the old school of learning in terms of the traditional law that is being spoken to us by people in the communities, the elders. You start to see reports back that what I did in Fort Good Hope in terms of the fish and the affects of the chemicals coming into the water here, I do look forward to seeing when we have a final document in terms of the transboundary agreements with the provinces. It still doesn’t answer my question in terms of the debris that is coming down into the Athabasca into the Slave into the Great Slave Lake which will eventually flow into the Mackenzie River which would flow right out to the Beaufort Sea. What are we going to do in terms of strong monitoring effect, studies that we have in the water?
We are going to have no people in the Mackenzie here. The Minister is giving a good outline as to
what possibly could happen. However, I want something that is solid, concrete and would say, yes, this is what we are going to do. We are going to affect the quality of our water. Take water out of the Mackenzie now. In one year or two years down the road, it will be the same quality of water. You won’t see the increase of chemicals that are being infected into the Mackenzie River water. That is what I am looking for.
