Madam Speaker, at some point in time, when the honourable Member has an opportunity to travel to Russia, I invite him to experience some of the ways the Russians do business. I know many times in Canada, the Northwest Territories people get upset about the government, how they do business and how many meetings you have to go to, but let me tell you when you go to Russia, even the very smallest decision they have to make, there is a multitude of meetings that start first thing in the morning and go through many social functions and right into the evening. So I would say we had about three different meetings. One meeting was in relationship to a further contract that Ferguson Simek Clark were attempting to finalize on the airport terminal building, which they got. So we had some meetings in that area. We had some meetings with the sub-government groups that are in the decision-making process. So there were several small meetings during the time we were there.

I was pleased that we finally concluded the village. I have been involved with that enterprise with Ferguson Simek Clark for several years along with the Department of Public Works. The steps you have to take to even get there are horrendous and I am glad that it finally reached its end. For the next trip, I would like to have someone else take that marvellous opportunity. Thank you.
