Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In the past three years, the Members of the Legislative Assembly, as well as Cabinet, worked very hard to balance the books of the government and worked very hard to ensure that when they moved into the creation of two new territories, we did it on sound financial footing. It raises some concern when I hear potential candidates saying that they are willing to spend $1 million to open communication into the regions, where there may be cheaper methods, but are both candidates committed to keeping a balanced budget for the Northwest Territories and as well as holding the line on the spending of the Government of the Northwest Territories, so that we do not go into debt?
