Mr. Chairman, what we're looking at with the NWT Development Corporation is this problem. For instance, we've created products at the Fort McPherson canvas shop and we now have the potential to create a large number of products, but we haven't spent any time focusing on sales and marketing, how to let people know we have these products. So the new president of the NWT Development Corporation has focused on that particular issue as the single-most-pressing issue facing the Development Corporation at this time. He is undertaking to come up with some plan, first using existing staff and resources to address that problem. He will be reporting to myself and to the NWT Development Corporation board to get approval on how to maximize our marketing and sales of existing inventory, how to move things out of warehouses and also how to establish a good basis for a market. Thank you.
