Thanks, Mr. Chair. It looks like there is going to have to be a supplementary appropriation for this. I probably don't need to impress upon the Minister or his staff the significance of taking on a large area like this and managing it properly as a protected area equivalent to a national park. That does require a significant investment of funds from our government.

There are also significant benefits that are going to come, and I look forward to having more of a discussion with him moving forward, but if we are going to really take this on, we have to do it right. We have to find the money to do it, and it has to be a serious commitment. There will be benefits for people in Yellowknife, and for Lutselk'e on the other side of the lake as well, but I just don't really get a sense that we are approaching this with the seriousness that it needs; but I'll stop there.

I want to move on to Cumulative Impact Monitoring Program. It looks like there are reductions of that in the order of $190,000, and that money is being shifted to corporate management, which I think is the next item, for legislative proposals, and some money is being taken out for another activity that I just cannot remember off the top of my head. Why is there money being shifted out of the Cumulative Impact Monitoring Program? Thanks, Mr. Chair.
