Yes, thank you, Madam Chair. My understanding is that these core principle objectives, though, are being pushed only by GNWT. No other negotiators are pushing them at the tables, and the Indigenous groups are feeling kind of -- and I'm not speaking for every Indigenous group, because I haven't talked to every Indigenous group, so I can't speak to every, but the ones that I have and I do understand is that that may be a barrier, because it is almost saying that we are a tiered government. If we are going to the table to negotiate, what you're saying is the way you need to have it done, and what we're saying, as an Indigenous government, we can't -- like you said, that needs to be at the table where -- and the negotiators, and I mean, maybe that's going to help better with negotiators having a mandate that is going to tell them to be able to do these kinds of things.

A lot of times, what I'm hearing is they go, and they're not even coming back with the things that they say that they're going to follow up, so I think that there are some issues there, and I think that those need to be -- in order for us to move forward with this, I think that those things need to be looked at, and whoever is in charge of meeting with the negotiators needs to be saying, "Okay, what are the challenges? What are these, and how are we going to move forward? When the Premier is meeting with these Indigenous groups, what are the challenges, like it says in there? And how can we move forward, and how can we" -- because if that's the case, we're never going to move forward. Thank you
