Mr. Speaker, my department, RWED, has been working very hard in trying to negotiate an economic development agreement with the federal government over the past two years and they continue that effort. The traditional economy is very much a piece of that economic development agreement, if we are successful in negotiating one. I agree with the Member, it is an important part of our economy. We cannot get too focused on oil and gas and diamonds and forget that piece. Thank you.
