Thank you. Now, additionally the federal government has assisted mining industries in the south. I believe, and I am using a hypothetical figure because I have not been able to confirm it. They have provided a $150 million to industries in northern Ontario, I believe it was, to mining industries to update and modernize their plants. In that case the federal government receives no royalty return because it presumably goes to the provinces. Here in the territories they get all their royalty returns. Will the Minister address that particular question to the DIAND Minister to ask for dollars and assistance to update our mining industry and make them more sustainable for the long run? Thank you.
