Thank you, Mr. Chairman. There are other communities not as bad off as Nahanni Butte, but who we are trying to bring up to a basic standard for the water intake. There are places such as Colville Lake and Snare Lakes where we are working to address those problems. There are two or three of them which we have to bring up to a better standard. All of them have access and are not in the same situation as Nahanni Butte. The other ones have access to a good source of water and Nahanni Butte does not. It is the way in which they access it. There is also Kakisa and Grise Fiord. We are coming along. I think we are making good progress. At least now, other than Nahanni Butte, they all have a safe available water source, however, it is still a bit primitive in some areas, where they have to go cut a hole in the ice to get water. We are working on improving that. Thank you.
