Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Being a beneficiary of the Inuvialuit Final Agreement, I would like to congratulate the people of the Tlicho. I have gone through the excitement of having an agreement signed. I saw the Gwich’in one signed. My family are beneficiaries of the Gwich’in Final Agreement. So there is a bit of uncertainty, but as the other groups have shown, once the Tlicho have their agreement in place, they will do themselves proud. Thank you.
