Thank you, Mr. Speaker. That is an ongoing process. We encourage buy north and hire north. We encourage our civil service to work within the parameters of this government to ensure that the dollars that this government spends stay in the Northwest Territories. We do that through sole sourced contracts as well as negotiated contracts as well as block funding through communities, training programs and things as such. There is an ongoing process to try to make sure that we stop the slippage of dollars into southern Canada. Thank you.
