The honourable member is right, I think, that there is a lot of rumour right now, a lot of speculation, about various outcomes. We see a lot of commentary in the press. We certainly hear a lot of different theories from some of our sources as well. But as I said, I think that just as a decision to postpone the referendum would be destabilizing, likewise any kind of unilateral declaration would also be extremely destabilizing. That's one of the reasons why we're remaining so focused on encouraging the parties to stick to the agreement.
If I may, the honourable member talked about building trust between the parties, and that's really what is at the foundation of all of this, trying to use the CPA to keep them on track and to use the kinds of discussions and negotiations that are going on around post-referendum issues, whether it's citizenship or debt or so on, to build that level of trust so that ultimately they can reach agreement on some of these important issues.
On minorities in the north, perhaps I'll ask one of my colleagues if he might like to comment.
