Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My colleague from Kitikmeot, the honourable Mr. Ng, has directed me to speak to an item of concern regarding Coppermine. I think the honourable Minister of MACA and her staff are aware of the water facility problem he had in Coppermine. I think no community in this particular jurisdiction, the NWT, should suffer because of low-quality drinking water, especially when the majority -- more than 50 per cent of the area -- of the Northwest Territories is covered with fresh water. I'm not going to elaborate any further because Mr. Ng has brought this matter before the Minister in this House and I'm sure the Minister and her staff are aware of the problem. I'm sure the regional staff of the Kitikmeot region of MACA are also aware of the problem in Coppermine.
