Mr. Speaker, it is kind of like an opera. There should be music to this. I know that in the pre-implementation exercise that is currently underway, we will identify a phased approach to the division of the territories. In that we will clearly identify the PYs, if that is what we are talking about, the bodies that are necessary to be put in place in certain areas prior to April 1, 1999. I would say, in fairness to everybody, that I do not see this as we are going to turn the lights on and give them the key to the house and everything is going to be in order. The reality is we are less than 20 months

away, there are a variety of players at the table besides ourselves, consensus needs to be reached and that is almost next to impossible these days, with all the parties. So we need to put a blueprint on the table for discussion. That is what we are attempting to do here. Then we will, as they say in politics, knock it around and try to come to some consensus on how we move forward. We need to make sure our employees in Yellowknife, and it is primarily Yellowknife and I understand this is Mr. Ootes' concern, the business community et cetera, are aware of it.

But certainly the intent of my office is to make sure it is done in an orderly way. You cannot load people on 747s and leave and then impose in the land of opportunity, in Mr. Picco's riding of Iqaluit, that hive of political activity and entrepreneurial fervour, we cannot just automatically land all these bodies and all those opportunities on his doorstep to the detriment of the rest of Nunavut. The intent here is to put a comprehensive, well laid out pre-implementation plan in place and again, I am emphasizing because it is important, bring all the players to the table to see if we can reach a consensus, and then move forward. Somebody said to me the other day that well, you know money seems to be the most critical issue. To me, the most critical issue is time, not money. Thank you.
