Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I will answer the last question first. No, there has not been a comprehensive plan submitted to Cabinet at this point. We have developed a proposal outline which we are planning to discuss with Keewatin mayors, the Keewatin Inuit Association and the two boards in Rankin Inlet the week of February 17. This will really be the first formal discussion that we have had with those communities about what this project could potentially look like. It will be providing them with a greater level of detail than they have seen before, but what some of the issues are. Certainly, it is very complex. Following that, if the communities agree that the proposal outline looks like something they want to pursue and if we are in agreement with them on a time frame, then that is the point at which we would be bringing it back for a green light before doing the next step of developmental work. There have been a number of issues that have been identified in developing this proposal outline. They range from some of the liability and cross-indemnification issues, we just talked about earlier, through to some very complex issues around insurance, et cetera. We have been working through those issues not only with the communities, but also with the Association of Municipalities. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
