Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As the Premier and Mr. Krutko have exchanged on some

of the history that went on with the devolution and resource revenue sharing beyond 1988 and from there today where we have an initial agreement that we’re discussing whether we sign or not sign, Mr. Speaker, in terms of that history it also shows that the government has also changed its views in terms of the majority of aboriginal governments on board to the full support of them to some support. Now it seems like we have a government-to-government relationship and I’m afraid that this initial agreement will not recognize the aboriginal governments as being party to this initial agreement. I think there are some significant changes that need to be made, if I read it closely enough, in terms of moving forward.

I want to ask the Premier in terms of allowing the people of the Northwest Territories the opportunity to say this deal is good for us or not. Will the Premier, again, commit to some type of open forum for debate on the initial AIP?
