Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the honourable Member raised a good point here. I think he has already gone over this program that is a Canadian government program. It is part of a program that outlines how Canada is going to meet the Kyoto protocol, so they introduced an energy efficiency retrofit for about 20 percent of the existing low-rise housing units by 2010. There is a program that they have introduced, so the federal department of Natural Resources Canada is responsible for this program and they have contracted the Arctic Energy Alliance to do this program. They have hired one person that is stationed here in Yellowknife and currently has been doing Yellowknife only at this point in time. It is their responsibility to provide the program. We realize that there are other homeowners outside of Yellowknife and I think that the Member makes a really good point that we should raise with the program funders and the Arctic Energy Alliance. Thank you.
