Mr. Speaker, the answer is no. Once the lodge has the permits issued to them, then we cannot take them back or withhold renewing them unless something changes in their operation. As long as they continue as is, and as frustrated as we may be that benefits are very, very limited in this case...to my knowledge, I believe they fly tourists in and out of Winnipeg. I believe they fly in a lot of their supplies. I believe they bring in a lot of their workers from the south. There is nothing we can do. This lodge has been in operation for many years.

I do not like it any more than the Member does in terms of its very limited benefits to the Northwest Territories, but we cannot use the airport extension that happened a number of years ago as a reason to not continue to renew the tourism licence. Legally, we just cannot do that. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
