Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate the Minister’s response. I recognize that this, and maybe much of this, has been inherited by this Minister, but now is the time and opportunity to
address these and I appreciate the Minister’s commitment.
My last question is on the greater issue of our land legacy. We’re in devolution negotiations; we’re proposing to take down the existing federal land management program with no additional resources I know of. As we know, federal enforcement is no enforcement. So we’re inheriting this huge deficit and I called on the Minister during the last Assembly to write the federal Minister, start a correspondence, ask him for priority action to begin enforcing the law. So will the Minister provide us with the correspondence he’s had to date on this with DIAND or whoever, and his perspectives on the implications of this to our devolution negotiations process? Mahsi.
