Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I did say earlier in my statement, the effort made by the government and the direction we gave them was to look at these lay-offs in a fair and constructive way right across the Territories. My numbers indicate, at this time, that in Yellowknife there is roughly seven per cent -that is give or take -- in comparison to the total workforce. In the Fort Smith area, it is somewhere in the region of two per cent. The Inuvik region is three per cent. The Baffin region, in terms of its percentage cut versus its overall employees is, again, three per cent although Iqaluit itself is four per cent. Keewatin region, which is dear to my heart, is four per cent and my home town is seven per cent. The Kitikmeot region is five per cent. In Mr. Ng's riding of Cambridge Bay, it's nine per cent. Thank you.
