Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Economic Development and Tourism. Since our first fully elected government under Mr. George Braden, this government has taken the position that our economy has to be based on something that is sustainable and renewable, so that all communities could find themselves a niche, if you like, a little area that they could develop. So I would like to ask the Minister, since I have heard recently during the Prospects North conference that our government has indicated that our economy would be based upon non-renewable resources, oil and gas, mining and so on, whether this represents a new vision, a change in the way government is going to look at economic development in the Northwest Territories.
