Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I want to make a note, for the record, that I resent the Minister's ignorant remarks, once again. It is not only for my comfort, but the comfort of the committee, with regard to bringing in his witnesses. However, with respect to increase tank capacity safety code, for Arviat, there is funding that is being requested that is not applied to other tanks. With regard to increasing this tank capacity, why is this labelled "safety code," which is not the case with other tank farms? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. That is because of the problem that we had with the sinking. All tank farms are now designed to safety code and the new environmental codes as well.

So, Mr. Chairman, is it fair to say that we would be anticipating other tank farms looking at extra costs incurred in the future to bring them up to the safety code and ensure that they are environmentally safe?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It is our responsibility to make sure that they meet environmental codes, as well as safety codes. Any tank farms that don't meet that would be brought up to standard, but our tank farms are designed to meet the existing standards of today.

Are there any existing tank farms that do not meet the safety codes for environmental purposes? Should we anticipate an increase in funding for these other tank farms that are already in existence?
