Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the hydrographic survey in the Keewatin is primarily aimed at making the approaches to our communities safer for resupply and dry cargo. We are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it with the support of the Canadian federal government, we are achieving that. It is a cooperative approach that is aimed towards further development into the Keewatin area. There is potential for mining. There is exploration going on and if it is successful in developing into its full potential, the mining industry, we need safe routes into our communities and in that area. Thank you.
