Thank you, Mr. Speaker. When I made that statement, that there are certain qualifications that are needed for certain jobs in the Northwest Territories, and I am not going to talk about any specific jobs, but you end up going south. You do end up with a southerner in a position the odd time, whether it be in government, or it be in the mining industry, or whatever. We acknowledge that fact and we recognize that. That is not saying that people in the Northwest Territories do not have a great amount of qualifications, but it so happens that some jobs in the government, and even outside of government, that people make the decision to hire, and they make the decision to hire the best person for that job.

The only way you can ever really judge whether that is the right or wrong decision, is finding out if that person produces. Until you give that person the opportunity to produce, whether it be for private sector or the government, then you cannot judge whether that is the right or wrong decision. So, the indulgence of the Assembly, I think that we are going to, in this Assembly, have a debate on the affirmative action policy and hiring north. We will have that debate, and we will have that debate on broad principles, and then we will have clear direction from this House. I know that in the past the affirmative action policy has not increased very well, of aboriginal senior management in government. I also know that it has to be re-worked, and we look forward to Members' input on that whole issue.

I am not going to make a comment on whether or not, I guess I have a problem, Mr. Speaker, commenting or talking about individuals in this Assembly that are not able to defend themselves in the Assembly. We have made it common practice before in this House, for example, not to name individuals or be cautious of how we approach issues. We approach them on principle and deal with them in such a way. Thank you.
