Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Premier. It's with regard to my statement looking at the negotiated contracts and the policies of this government. I fully support negotiated contracts on the basis that it does build capacity and it also deals with a crucial problem in a lot of our communities dealing with having 30 percent unemployment and also improving the social aspects of our communities by offering people an alternative to income support. So I would like to ask the Premier where this government stands when we look at dealing with the problems with regard to reducing poverty in our communities and also looking at improving employment opportunities for Inuvialuit and Gwich'in people in our communities, so they can have meaningful employment. Is that still a priority of this government, to ensure that local and northern residents receive every opportunity to benefit from public dollars expended in our communities and those dollars remaining in our communities and not simply being given to southern contractors?
