Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I'm not familiar with the letter that the honourable Member is talking about, so I cannot talk to that letter as I don't have it in front of me. But I want to assure Members that any development with respect to changes in the zones or changes in the tourism associations will be: one, driven by the private sector; two, reflective of their needs; and, three, has to meet the fiscal conditions that we are all working under. In the OPPLAN we have already reduced the money for the zones from $600,000 to $400,000.

There was a meeting last weekend in Iqaluit with the Nunavut tourism zone associations, in an effort to provide some guidance and instruction to the department as to how they would see the -- I think this is what they called it -- Travel Nunavut Association take place. I am confident that the industry in the west will do the same and that we will respond accordingly. Thank you.
