Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Premier. Earlier today in my Member's statement, I provided some information to the House on how mining companies and Canada view the policies of this government with regard to developing jobs and the potential for investment in the Northwest Territories. Mr. Speaker, we are rated as the second worst in Canada as far as having policies that attract mining investment in the Northwest Territories although we have the largest potential for development. I think it is fair to say that Indian Affairs has a responsibility to make this policy or create policies to make the Northwest Territories more attractive to the mining industry. My question to the Premier is, what is this government doing with regard to working with Minister Stewart and her department to make the Northwest Territories a much more attractive place for investment for the mining industry? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
