It is never too late to make decisions. What is important is that we make them. We have made the decision based upon the advice that we have been given by the honourable colleague and the uproar which occurred in his constituency with respect to expanding the liquor hours in Inuvik, which appeared to some to be a contradiction to the fact that we closed down the drug and alcohol centre. I want to assure you that was not the case. We have taken steps, again, as we speak, this afternoon, to sit down with the contractor to make sure we meet our obligations to him under the contract and at the same time try to respond to the concerns with respect to his constituency, and in particular my honourable colleague, who would like to see reduced hours on the sale of liquor. Thank you.
