Mr. Speaker, my question is to the Government Leader. Given that the Minister of Finance has agreed that he will support strongly the northern preference policies, my question to the Government Leader is this, Mr. Speaker: We have heard much in the last three or four days regarding the implementation and recommendations of the Beatty report. What we have not heard are the economic effects of the recommendations on northern business. In reality, the size of the pie for northern business is getting smaller. As an economic component of the Beatty report, and to ensure that northern business gets more of less, would the Government Leader commit this government to implementing both a "buy North only" policy and a "tender North only" policy, before the end of the fiscal year?
