Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in my Member's statement, I made reference to my concern regarding the potential sale of the Northwest Territories Power Corporation and its effect on present joint ventures with aboriginal governments and the Power Corporation, especially the ones that involve the Fort McPherson Aadrii Ltd. distribution of waste heat generation by the Power Corporation. Also, regarding the Inuvik venture where the Inuvialuit are now selling natural gas to the Power Corporation as a cheap form of energy.

Can the Minister responsible for the Power Corporation tell this Assembly what the effect of selling the Power Corporation will have on joint ventures with aboriginal organizations?
