Thank you. It is my intention to focus even more energy and commitment on the relationship with Ottawa. It should be a fairly simple matter to get additional monies through our economic initiatives to replace the original Economic Development Agreement. It is not a difficult exercise. We got hung up on this exercise of trying to draft an economic strategy and we have been unable to provide to Ottawa an economic strategy on a timely basis, which is supposed to produce new dollars, badly needed dollars to replace the now defunct Economic Development Agreement monies. You can always look at the budget to see if there are any additional ways to streamline. We know that amalgamation, for instance, was put on hold by this Legislature because we felt we have done enough, but there is work to do with Ottawa and Mr. Martin on the tax window. A way to increase our revenue by increasing the tax window.
We have ways to create additional jobs through pursuing value added activities in the diamond industry which we have been slowly, but methodically developing. Every time we create a job, means there are less people on social assistance. It means two or three more people who do not have to apply for social assistance and take away scarce dollars from that particular envelope. We have to continue to be aggressive in working to create jobs in the oil and gas industry, mining industry, diamond industry, and trying to attract more and more tourists up here because that sector of the economy is the one that benefits Colville Lake and Kakisa as much as it does Yellowknife and Inuvik. It expands right across the territories. People come, they spend their money, they leave. It is incredibly friendly, it does not tax our infrastructure throughout the entire year. We need to increase the amount of dollars that come in from that sector. Those are some of the things that I think we can, and should do and continue to do. Thank you.
