Mr. Chairman, typically we would not have this high of an increase. This is a project that was originally estimated at $5.4 million and to have an $834,000 increase is not usual. However, we are not dealing in usual times. We do have a very much heated up economy, particularly in Inuvik. So the bidders are putting in higher bids because they are busier. Their cost of doing business is higher so this is a bit unusual. Thank you.
