Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'll make it very brief, Mr. Minister. In our study on northern resource development, northern mining, there were discussions about the GEM program. It's coming up to its fourth year.
I am wondering specifically about the GEM program and geomapping in general. Where do you see the department going? How do you see it developing? And in whatever time we have, could you talk about any other programs and initiatives your department has to help develop our mineral resources in northern Canada?
