Thanks, Mr. Chair.
Welcome to the witnesses. I appreciate your comments here on the issues surrounding the NLCA, in particular. However, I'm trying to put this into the context of the Arctic Council and international relations.
I think the Arctic sovereignty issue is extremely important. How that plays out internationally is of interest to me. From what you're proposing here, say, with the Nunavut Marine council, we know that to deal with ecosystems we're going to have to have relationships with other countries, international agreements on those types of things.
Could you explain how that Nunavut Marine Council would work internationally to promote not only Canada's sovereignty but also the care and protection of the resources?
