(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have a brief question for the Minister. In the Northwest Territories there is a committee which oversees economic development. I would like to clarify this question. During the last month there was a person who went into Lake Harbour to set up a bank to assist entrepreneurs. They said they were able to lend this particular person some money to start up a business. He was told that if he did not have sufficient funds to start the business up then they would be able to help him. However, he had a little bit of money to start out with so he was denied the funding. I would like clarification from the Minister as to whether this is in fact true? Do you need to have a certain amount of money to get start-up funding? Thank you.
