Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, with respect to government policies like the BIP and Affirmative Action, the department currently does encourage the municipal governments to adopt a northern preference policy with respect to purchasing and many community governments do so voluntarily. The question of GST is a concern for the department as well and we are looking at that specific issue. Perhaps I could ask if Mr. Christensen might address some of these issues, particularly with respect to the airport transfers. He does chair our infrastructure task team.
