Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I understand the Leader's concern. I do not think it is not so much a public matter, I think of the number "25." If you already have that number in your rule book, you will be swamped with petitions every day from my community because that number is not very high.

Anything they want, they will be sending it by fax. If we say 100 or 200 signatures are required for legitimate petitions, that will leave out the smaller communities. Maybe what we can do is go by percentage, rather than the actual numbers. For example, the populations between 100 to 500 will require half the signatures, 500 to 1000 will require one third, 1001 to 2000 will require one quarter, 2000 and up such as Yellowknife, will require one eighth. That would be more acceptable, rather than the number "25." Those who are in the construction crew want to have their meals paid by the government, rather than the company, they will be sending petitions right away. Is it a public matter, I do not know. If the people in Coral Harbour want to have us build a wharf because they are losing many boats, if they have one third of the population signing the petition, that is legitimate. I think we are going to have to look at recommendation seven more carefully. Thank you.
