Thank you, Madam Speaker. With the understanding that if we approve this motion, we won't be able to ask questions directly to the Minister of Indian Affairs and raise the numerous concerns we have, and also because the Nunavut Implementation Commission, along with the Nunavut Caucus and NTI have been working with the federal government already on Bill 132 -- or whatever it is called, the bill respecting article four of the land claims agreement -- and there have been problems with definitions already, I won't be supporting the motion. It will not allow me to get clarification regarding the implementation. Qujannamiik.

Just a quick question to the mover. In the second paragraph, it says, "the DIAND Minister is prepared to provide the Legislative Assembly with clarification of federal policies and broad statements of principles." In that case, will we be able to ask questions, as Members, directly to the Minister directly after the statement made by him?

Thank you, Madam Speaker. I would like to table a document. Tabled Document 27-12(6) is a letter to Mayor John Kaunak from Dr. Moffatt dated September 16th. I would also like to include in this tabling, a letter to the Honourable Donnie Morin from Mayor John Kaunak, dated October 5th.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. My apologies. I did not do that very well, did I? What I'm trying to ask is did he make such a statement regarding what the CBC Kivallivik said? If that will also be ruled out of order, I'll try to find another way of finding that out. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Earlier this week, when I was at home in Coral Harbour, I was told that the Minister of Education made a statement to the divisional board of education in the Keewatin that the language cuts from the federal government to our government were the fault of the Languages Commissioner and that the Minister's statement was aired on CBC Kivallivik. In the meantime, I'm trying to get the transcript from the CBC. Up to this time, I have not yet been successful. I am confident that I will be getting those transcripts later on. However, I want to know from the Minister if this rumour I hear from my own community is true.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Final supplementary, will the Minister then communicate his response to me on the procedure that can be used with the hamlet immediately? Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. This reply seems to be for all the future contractors who will be coming into the communities. My question is with regard to that particular contractor in that particular community. Will the company that caused the problem not be awarded the contract in the next season? Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. The hamlet of Coral Harbour pleaded, as in my statement, with that particular company over the summer and they have not changed their attitude and behaviour in that regard. I don't know if monitoring will result in any improvement.

My question then is, is there a way to deal with such issues where the contractor is acting irresponsibly in the community when, in fact, they've been told not to? Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. I have a question for the Minister of Housing. Earlier I spoke about the concern that has been expressed by the hamlet of Repulse Bay and the paediatric consultant who has been doing work in that area for the past 11 years, about the problem of alcohol and drugs being supplied by the outside building contractors.

Surely the Minister has been made aware of this, like the rest of us, in the past. My question is, what has the Minister found out about the situation?
