Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The $100 million that is being referred to is $100 million divided between the three northern territories. The $100 million dollars is a result of the normal adjustments that are made to the territorial grants under the current formula. It is money that has already been accounted for in our estimates. It is not new-found money, it is simply an adjustment that is made to the grant for this year and for previous years. Mr. Speaker, there is no new money as a result of that $100 million adjustment. Thank you.
