Mr. Chairman, the power subsidy program has two components. The domestic power subsidy program gives a discount to all residential users outside of Yellowknife for the first 700 kilowatts hours used per month. The commercial subsidy program provides a discount to all northern businesses with gross revenue of less than $2 million for the first 1,000 kilowatt hours used per month. The subsidy is established so that the rates paid would be equivalent to those paid within Yellowknife. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
