Merci, Monsieur le President. I want to thank the Minister for that. Yes, and I too fully recognize the work that's being done by Indigenous governments and organizations, like the Gwich’in Social and Cultural Institute. They've done a lot of work on place names.

But I think that we need a concerted effort and a program to fully recognize and change colonial and racist place names here in the Northwest Territories. It's not clear, you know, whether we actually have such a program ourselves. So I want to ask the Minister whether he intends to fully implement UNDRIP article 13 and whether any...

Okay, thanks, Madam Chair, and thanks to the Minister for that. So we passed the budget on and received assent I think on March 31st, so April, May, June, July, August five months. Is there no way that we can do this a little bit quicker next time? Thanks, Madam Chair.

Merci, Madame le President. Committee wishes to consider Tabled Document 65819(2) and Tabled Document 65719(2). Mahsi.

Yes, thanks, Madam Chair. And okay, yes, I understand we are going to get some further information about that. Yes, part of my reason for asking that too is that we don't have a complete network of victim services coordinators across all of the regions, let alone the communities themselves. So I think we do need to do some more work towards better supporting victims of violence and the coordinators that try to connect them with services and support as well. So I'll be curious to see whether any of this funding is going to be used to move towards a more complete network. But I look forward to...

For.

Madam Chair, I think I saw the Minister shaking her head vigorously yes, so happy to take that commitment. And that's all I got on this item. Thanks.

Merci, Monsieur le President. I wish to table the following document, a report on map staking for minerals obtained pursuant to an access to information request entitled "Report on Jurisdictional Scan and Geomatics Analysis" by Archibald Robb Consulting and Aurora Geosciences Limited dated September 28, 2021. Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.

Thanks, Madam Chair. Yes, I would actually like to hear from the Minister of Infrastructure about that if that's at all possible. Thanks, Madam Chair.

Merci, Monsieur le President. I want to thank the Minister for that. I'm actually getting more information out of the Cabin Radio story than I guess what I've heard so for about what the process is going to be, but.

These Mactung and Cantung properties are 140 kilometres away from each other by air and 700 kilometres by road. It was always extremely unlikely that some buyer would ever take these on as some sort of a viable mining operation without significant concessions and subsidies.

So can the Minister tell us what incentives, concessions, or subsidies will be offered to sell the Mactung...

Thanks, Madam Chair. Can someone tell me, then, this commercial and industrial Greenhouse Gas Grant Fund, what is all about and who can actually access it? Thanks, Madam Chair.
