Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The next question I have is with regard to the cost implications for the fly-in communities around the lake. The Minister's statement states there will be some increase, a third of a cent per pound of freight or about $10,000 total per year for all these communities together, which I am assuming is about four or five. I don't understand this figure, Mr. Chairman, because if they are getting supplied from Yellowknife, the information we have is the cost of freight and, therefore, cost of goods will go down. So why is it that the Minister is projecting that some of these communities will see an increase, however small that might be? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
