Thank you, Madam Speaker. My question should be directed to Mr. Todd, the Minister responsible for Economic Development and Tourism, but he's not here, so I will direct it to the Premier. This is with regard to one of my constituents, Mr. Joe Mercredi. He's the owner of the Mackenzie Times. His last paper was issued because of the financial hard times. I would just like to say that this is the last aboriginal paper in this part of the country. He's been operating for a number of years and he said in public, on radio and in the paper, that he's been having some problems and has to shut down. I would like to ask the Premier if this government is prepared to see if they can help Mr. Mercredi and his Mackenzie Times out, to see if it is still a viable business and if we can help him continue it? Thank you.
