Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Finance. The Minister talks about fair and compassionate Guts. Both the Premier and the Minister of Finance told us in this House that cuts would be fair and that all segments of the economy and communities would feel the effects. Why does Yellowknife take 50 per cent of the job cuts when it is 35 per cent of the positions and when 37 Communities in the Northwest Territories have no job losses? I would like to ask the Minister where the fairness is in that approach.
