Thank you, Madam Speaker. My question is for the Minister responsible for the NWT Power Corporation, the Premier. Madam Speaker, the Government of Yukon acquired the Yukon assets of the Northern Canada Power Commission at about the same time as the GNWT purchased the NWT assets of NCPC. The Union of Northern Workers has recently asserted that the sale of, I believe it is called the Yukon Electrical Corporation, to private interests in Yukon provides an example of how power subsidies will disappear if NWT Power is privatized. Although I have taken note of the UNW views, I would like to ask the Minister for the NWT Power Corporation, in her view, what lessons does the Yukon experience have for us in the Northwest Territories? Thank you.
