Thank you, Mr. Chair. I thank our guests today.
Premier, it's very educational to have your last comment in particular. You have a fast growing population. They're more educated than any in the past. Where are they going to go? What are they going to do? I think those are important words for us to consider.
You mentioned earlier, Mr. Chair, about the creation of Nunavut. Former minister Tom Siddon—who is still an elected official in my region of the Okanagan—says one of the most important things he did in his long parliamentary career was to help with the creation, because the people had aspirations and he wanted to see a different tone in Ottawa when it came to the relationship.
Certainly, Premier, your words are well-received.
In regard to the moratorium, I asked many of the same questions of your counterpart from the Northwest Territories. Obviously, it seems apparent that there was very little consultation, and I agree with your comment about coming at a very critical time when you're having negotiations on devolution, and how that could impact things.
If we see the administration down south reverse that moratorium—the previous one put in by President Obama—would you be in support of a similar...to rescind that moratorium here?
