Thank you all for going to great lengths to get here today. I know it was staggered, and we really appreciate your making the effort to become a part of this panel today and the testimony you've given.
I referred in our last meeting to member Saganash, who is not able to join us today. When we talked about the northern Cree and the fact that they negotiated a land claim, and then the negotiations went on, probably 20 negotiations, 20 agreements, occurred over a generation. On Tuesday, with Nunavut and ITK here, we were talking about the same sort of issue, that these claim agreements need to be living documents.
Mr. Eyford, can you comment on the need for these agreements to be living agreements as they transition into changes as a result of these agreements and unforeseen consequences that could occur?
