Thank you. Probably people getting tired of me standing up in the House and saying it's the federal government's responsibility. But under the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Act, it is the federal government. They are the one responsible for it. The GNWT is in the position. The position is that the regional study's conducted. The federal government needs to be responsible for the study and participants moving forward.

We will be working with our Indigenous governments and participants to stress that to the federal government. It is their responsibility until the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Act becomes ours, the federal government needs to do what their job is and that is to pay for this study. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
