Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development, Mr. Antoine. It's in regard to my line of questioning towards the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. As I stated earlier, between the two phases of construction, we're looking at the preconstruction phase where you're looking at some 810 jobs from access road construction to camps and catering. With construction of the pipeline we're looking at almost 2,700 jobs. Together, that's 3,500 jobs that will be created in the Mackenzie Valley.
Yet, Mr. Speaker, I feel that we have to inject more dollars into the education and training field knowing that we've had programs in the past, called maximizing northern employment, where we expended some $15 million. We've had agreements in place with the diamond companies by way of social and economic benefit agreements. I'd like to ask the Minister, are we looking at a similar arrangement so we can take advantage of these 3,500 jobs that are going to be generated by the construction of the pipeline?
