Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the Member is indeed correct, the number of visitors to the Delta is increasing, and we are encouraged by that. As the Banks Island Park comes into being, there will be more people passing through the Delta on their way up to Banks Island. So many people go to Inuvik and then go on to Tuktoyaktuk, so we are having, in spite of ourselves sometimes, some success in that area. I will take into consideration the Member's comments.
This year 25 per cent of our budget will be spent in the Inuvik region. For the total capital projections, more than 50 per cent will be spent in the Inuvik region.
With regard to the trade with Alaska, Northern Transportation Company Limited was trying to get into the supply business in Alaska, but ran into some insurance problems with barges and double-hulled barges, etc. There has been some attempt by Northern Transportation to start some trade with Alaska. If the Member's constituents feel that it is something we should be investigating further we would be glad to do that, Mr. Chairman.
