Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I mentioned, the mining companies initially looked at the impacted communities and they almost had borders there, but they realize now they have to go beyond that. We have traditionally taken an approach of trying to help immediately those communities where the employees were available, but we have gone much beyond that because mostly we've done this through the mine training committee. It's been up and down the valley doing various projects and we know that we've got to, as a government, look to every community in the territory as potential employees. In order to facilitate that, we did apply and made several proposals and developed a mine training committee that has been in existence for a long time. We have also developed an oil and gas training committee, which has representation from a variety of organizations: the Government of the NWT through RWED and ECE, HRDC, DIAND and the Aboriginal groups through the Aboriginal human resource development groups. So we have put that together. We've got an oil and gas pipeline committee as well.

We've got the umbrellas in place. We have some units of proposals to the federal government. We don't know whether there's any money for that or not, Mr. Speaker, but certainly we are continuing our effort and we are developing through the college a number of programs like the mobile welding unit. We want to do it with carpentry. We want to do it with a number of other areas, so we can shoot those into communities like Fort Resolution so people can get some hands-on experience for two weeks, see if they want to move into that trade and then move into apprenticeships with mining companies or whoever. Thank you.
