Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I can advise the honourable Member that there already are some courses offered outside of the Northwest Territories for anyone who wants to be skilled in this field. Part of the information could be received through discussions with our peer centres or With the Department of Renewable Resources. However, I can advise the honourable Member that there is no program offered in Aurora College or Nunavut Arctic College. It is our intention to discuss the matter of developing an appropriate program, but it will take us some time. We need to have discussions with Aurora College, Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources, probably Education, Culture and Employment, and Renewable Resources in order for us to be certain we have the appropriate program in place, but it will take us some time. We are interested in reviewing this matter and bringing forward a response to the suggestion made by the honourable Member.
