Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions will be to the Minister responsible for the Education, Culture and Employment on the areas previously questioned on the fuel subsidy. Now that we have an idea of what the food basket is made up of, from Statistics Canada based on 1991 dollars, I would like to know if the Minister, as I had asked yesterday, would look at including other things in this besides this nutritious food basket because if you are a senior in the NWT and own your own home, there are some extremely expensive items that go beyond supplying food. I would like to know in this review the Minister talked about yesterday, if they would look at including some other factors. Thank you.
