No, Mr. Chairman, we are ready for detail.

Those realities are currently in place. The contact has been made. We’re waiting for the clarification. The deputy minister, of course, has been on top of this along with his very able assistant deputy minister to stand ready to try to resolve this. We’ll see what happens by the end of the week, but we hope we’ll be able to move this process forward quickly. Thank you.

We’re working to resolve the immediate short-term issue related to the no-hunting zone and working with the Yellowknives to access enough animals for their communities, similar to the arrangement we have with the Tlicho. At the same time, we are...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. There are a number of ways. We’ll ensure that is done. We can do it by e-mail. We can do it, keeping in mind what he situation may be, to try to set up a conference call. But probably the fastest way would be to e-mail and if there’s a need to get more collaborative feedback, then we can look at some type of hook-up on a conference call.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I wish to table the following document entitled Supplementary Appropriation (Infrastructure Expenditures) No. 1, 2010-2011. Thank you.
