Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It took a while and I actually forgot my question, but I had enough time to remember it again, so I can proceed. My question, Mr. Speaker, is to the Minister of Finance; it has to do with funding for the two new territories proposed for 1999. I, as well as other Members, have always had some concern that when the day comes, there won't be enough money in the pot to sustain two new territories, but I know the Minister of Finance just met with the federal Minister of Finance. I wonder if the Minister of Finance can tell us if the subject of funding for division came up in the conversation. And if it did, when can we expect some concrete responses from the federal Minister of Finance on the funding for division?
