Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I like the Premier's positive attitude and that he is sending two of his top Ministers to negotiate with BHP and with the federal government. Hopefully, that will result in something which will benefit all northerners. My question to the Premier is, I have not heard the comment that was made by the Finance Minister anywhere in the statement here. Is that still on the table, the potential of taxes that would choke a mule in the event that northerners do not get the resources and benefits they deserve out of this industry? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
