Finally, I want to thank you and the department very much for the work going on regarding the mapping coordination with DND and others in the far north. I got a very good briefing about that at BIO. It's obvious this needs long-term commitment and funding, but I think the mapping of the continental shelves, especially in the far north with global warming, will go a long way in looking after not only our territory but proper resources, fisheries, and under the ground in the future. I thank you and your department for that.
