Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Premier. It is referring to a statement he made yesterday in his good news story about the $3.7 million that the federal government was putting towards infrastructure and our goals laid out in our Non-Renewable Resource Development Strategy. It has to do with the stipulations that were put on by the federal government where it states that $2.3 million of DIAND's contribution be spent on employment of aboriginal workers and contractors. I was wondering, Mr. Speaker, if in saying that, are we saying that we have a lot of business in the Territory that have helped build the Territory to what it is today? Are we saying that if you are not an aboriginal worker that there is no work in this new strategy?
