Well, the difficulty I have, and I guess it's just a matter of understanding, is that if you have an aboriginal person, for example, in Whale Cove and there's a position that becomes vacant in Cape Dorset and that person wants to move to Cape Dorset, I think that person should be given that opportunity to move from one location to another, because he's been in the Power Corporation before; or to Iqaluit to take advantage of a position, if he's willing to train to take an advanced position. There would be a limitation if you expect the corporation not to be able to move people around to take advantage of advanced positions. Thank you.

Not intending to put a kibosh on the current competitive process, if there are two applicants of equal stature, experience and education, whatever criteria required, all we're saying is the one that's in the community at the time should be given priority over any other ones. That's what we're saying.
