Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question will be directed to the Minister of Economic Development and Tourism. Today my colleague from Kitikmeot commented on the importance of seeing the government proceed as quickly as possible with developing the mineral resource sector of our northern economy. The Minister knows that the approximate sum of $8.5 million allocated to the mineral development category is the largest single allocation under the E.D.A. agreement. Close to $2.5 million of that allocation was targeted to the North Slave region. An additional $900,000 was also set aside for territorial-wide initiatives. Can the Minister indicate to the House what we have to show for this? How has the North Slave benefited to date from this E.D.A. funding?
