Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Public Works and Services. I would like to thank the Minister for his answer today about the modified gross lease approach to the acquisition of office space in Yellowknife. I noted in his answer that with this new form of lease in Yellowknife, operations and maintenance payments will be adjusted annually based on changes in the Canadian consumer price index. My understanding is that that is forecast over the next year to be two per cent or less of an increase. Given the Power Corporation's application for a 22 per cent rate increase, if that rate increase is approved, it will cause significant difficulty to people who have these leases because they will only be able to go up by the Canadian percentage, whereas the Yellowknife percentage may go up significantly more. If something like a big rate increase in power rates were to be approved, would the Minister reopen these leases and renegotiate the operation and maintenance portion of it?
