If you don't mind, I just want to say with regard to the caribou that I started working the bush when I was 17 years old. I'm a licensed mechanic. I've never seen a caribou all the years I was there. None of my co-workers has ever seen one.
What seems to be happening now is that somebody spotted a caribou in these parts. They're up north; we understand that. But for some reason a couple of caribou came down here. I've even heard, with regard to first nations communities, that now.... We're trying to take away forests, but we're also taking away the moose population by trying to do this. We're saying they've lived up north for all those years, let them stay there. Let us keep our jobs; let us keep our moose, and continue on.
I've never seen a caribou in our region.
