Thank you. I think I'd be remiss if I didn't mention tourism and the initiatives and again, some of the initiatives that are going on in the Inuvik region are much-needed for our economy. Again, on behalf of the people in the region, I want to thank the department for doing what they're doing. There's still a lot of work to do because we're just developing and this was mentioned, that we just completed a visitors' centre which is much needed.
Inuvik being one of the emerging markets, there's been a lot of new entrepreneurs opening businesses and they need a lot of help and assistance. The department has a lot of that knowledge and background and I would appreciate if the Minister would continue putting some initiatives and efforts into the tourism area. It's one of the issues that I'm very interested in and have always been. The Dempster Highway is a tourism attraction in itself and I know, speaking to the Minister, wearing his Transportation Minister's hat, that some of the things that are going to happen with the Dempster, again, would be appreciated and would help generate business.
Tourism, as it is here in Yellowknife and I think happening up in the Delta now, is becoming more than a three-month business. We're looking at the shoulder seasons and spring time festivals, and I think any marketing assistance would be appreciated. I notice that there's been a reduction in the core funding for the industry but I hope that reduction is now going direct to the entrepreneurs themselves rather than just being cut and not being used in the industry. Thank you.
