Thank you, Mr. Speaker. On a point of order, the Minister just said that there were Members on this side of the House basically that are looking to see if he was basically pork-barrelling his riding as a Minister, to put it in simple words. Mr. Speaker, the only reason that we ask questions from this side of the House is to get information. This Minister is no different than any other Member on this side of the House. He has every right to have money, government money, spent in his riding. There is no question about that. So I take issue, Mr. Speaker, on him imputing motives. All we are doing is asking for information. I do not care if he spends money in his riding, as long as proper programs and proper policies are followed in this government, money can be spent in the Sahtu, and it should be spent in the Sahtu just like it should be spent in any other riding. But I do take issue, Mr. Speaker, on him imputing the motive that what we are doing is trying to show the public in general that he is pork-barrelling. Thank you.
