Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Trying to project our fiscal future is really a complex task, because the numbers I am using, the numbers I used in my Budget Address are based on the current financing formula. We have now entered into new negotiations on a financing formula. I am going to try to negotiate a better deal than we had the last time. I suppose every Finance Minister tries that.

The second is that we are also dealing with devolution and resource revenue sharing. Those discussions are starting this month. Hopefully, that will help us as well.

Third is our economy continues to grow. Our own source revenues continue to increase. Our tax revenues have increased by about 6 percent in this last year and we expect that to continue.

The other factor is, of course, that over the next 20 years or so, the federal government, just from the current oil and gas development that is projected and the mining development, will make somewhere in the neighbourhood of $18 billion to $20 billion dollars. That is billion, not million. That is substantial. We need to negotiate to have a bigger share of that money stay here in the North. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
