Well, I think it is kind of shared between the two departments, because I know, under the Mackenzie Valley Fur initiative, that they do take trappers down, whether it's to North Bay or other auctions throughout Canada. This is all a part of it, encouraging more trappers. There is huge demand out there. This fall, there was an ad out for 20,000 muskrats. It is pretty tough to get up in our area at the moment because of population, but I think it is a responsibility between both departments. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Testart. Minister Schumann.

When communities work on developing or updating their emergency plans, can MACA act as a liaison to other departments and territorial agencies, for example, to help communities install backup generators in local schools or other gathering centres?
