Mahsi, Madam Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Economic Development and Tourism, who is responsible for the NWT Development Corporation. Within the last two years, the NWT Development Corporation bought the Patterson Sawmill in Hay River for approximately $1.4 million to $1.7 million. At that time, Members were told the number of board feet that was required to make this sawmill viable would come from the Cameron Hills area. But now trees have been taken from the Deh Cho region. The people in the Liard area are now in a logging pilot project and may want to develop their own business eventually. What impact will the Development Corporation's large investment in the Patterson Sawmill have on any investment assistance requests from Liard businesses for logging operations? Thank you.
