Thank you, Madam Speaker. I think it's obvious I'm not going to win this argument with the honourable Minister. But I would like to ask her this...I will give up on delegating authority to the field, maybe I'll get more sympathy in other quarters. I would like to ask the honourable Minister if contracts, even local maintenance contracts, are going to be dealt with from Hay River, would the Minister at least agree -- since these are of primary interest in the local community -- that it would make sense that the documents be made available at the local Power Corporation office in that community, and that the documents could be submitted and tendered within the deadline through the local office in the community, rather than having to go through the trouble and expense of retrieving and then sending them by courier to Hay River, which is some considerable distance for Iqaluit? Thank you.
