Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is addressed to the Minister responsible for FMBS. In the community of Inuvik, over the last number of years, we have talked about what we call the high-temp system. It is an utilidor system that is badly outdated and very costly to operate. As recently as this summer, we were notified that the Public Utilities Board was increasing the rates that are charged against that system. The companies in Inuvik and private citizens that are hooked up to this high temp system have seen a rate increase of 125 percent. Now I have worked with the Minister over the summer and tried to see if we can do something in the community. As of yet, it has not been resolved. I know there is ongoing work but I would like an update from the Minister responsible as to where we are in this process and will we see some work being done to reduce the cost in Inuvik? Thank you.
