Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would like to direct this question to the Premier. One of this government's principles when issuing contracts is that the contract opportunities should contribute to the goal of creating and maintaining self-sustaining business enterprises. Opportunities for northern residents to benefit from public dollars spent in the North should be maximized. I understand that sole-source contracts are awarded where the government's requirement is considered to be urgent or where only one party could possibly meet the demands of the contractor. The onus is on the government to prove that the above criteria are met when spending public money on sole-source contracts. Can the Premier explain how this government's sole-source contract policy embraces this principle? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
