Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have also given some thought to the motion and I feel I can support the motion from the sense that I feel this is going to an area and a group of people who are independent, they are out there working and they are maintaining their lifestyle through this. So many times we see money going into areas to support various areas such as the social envelope area. I am not critical of that, I also feel that we have to start encouraging people who are independent who are able to provide work through a good means and will contribute economically to the territories as a result overall. I am supporting this motion.
