The First Nations Land Management Act is a regime that has been very successful, I think, and there is quite a strong correlation between economic development outcomes and people in communities that are managing their own lands and resources. In fact, in the last budget, budget 2011, there was a commitment to invest more money in the First Nations Land Management Act. I'm in the process of implementing that budget decision.
