Mr. Speaker, no, the liquor retail outlets in Yellowknife still have to purchase their liquor through the warehouse. They do not purchase it somewhere else. It means that the warehouses are still carrying as much inventory as they used to, but we as a government, we used to own the liquor and the retail stores. Now, the retail stores buy it from the warehouse themselves. It does not change anything for the warehouses. In fact, it may have made it a situation where they have to carry more variety than they used to. Thank you.
