Thank you, Mr. Chair. So the Member is correct, it does not have anything to do with land claims; however, the guiding principle is that the Government of the Northwest Territories does believe in self-governance, does believe in land claims, and so within that we are looking at ways to partner appropriately with our Aboriginal governments. It is not okay to just put lip service to it. So we are very flexible on what they look like. For example, the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation, they get their money now directly from the federal government. We have a partnership that says we'll provide land and we'll take ownership and deal with the collections after. They get the economic development.
The Yamoga Land Corporation came to us. They want partnership. They have $500,000 that they're going to put on the table to deal with some of the issues with their residents. Salt River First Nations are actually doing some housing ownership programs within their communities, and so we're looking at how we can partner to give them materials.
So each Aboriginal government that has come to us is looking at a different type of partnership. We are open to whatever Aboriginal governments come to us; whatever they're putting on the table, we are open to looking at and trying to form a true partnership. Not a partnership that is dictated by the Government of the Northwest Territories, the Housing Corporation, but a partnership where both organizations come to the table and provide something. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
