Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, yes, we certainly do use our Member of Parliament extensively in several ways. First of all, she has been very useful in ensuring that the Premier, myself and others have been able to get meetings with appropriate federal Ministers and other Members of Parliament whenever we want to meet. That has been extremely useful.

Second, we have made her very aware of all of our interests in terms of the non-renewable resource development strategy, Common Ground, the economic development plan, and so on. She has been promoting that message in Ottawa for us.

Third is she has also been extremely effective in working with the Minister of DIAND and getting that department turned around on discussions on the possibility of an economic development agreement.

Mr. Speaker, yes, we use her extensively in every way we possibly can. Thank you.
