Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just want to elaborate a little further from my colleague from Yellowknife North and my colleague from Mackenzie Delta. My first concern I would have to say is the reduction of the environmental protection officer in the Deh Cho. This has an impact with our mandate in the development of our work within our smaller communities. This position, from what I understand in talking from the community's standpoint, is important for them to continue to grow, and this is one of the areas that I will have to steadfast ask questions about why it's being reduced.
The second comment is I would have to agree with my colleague from Mackenzie Delta about firebreaks and the importance of them. There seems to be some confusion about who is responsible; is it MACA or is it ENR? This needs to be brought forth, who should the community be working with on that. So I'll be asking some questions in that area. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
