Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Premier if the government has ever done a cost analysis with regard to the benefits of negotiated contracts or contracts in general, especially when we look at the social aspects of unemployment and opportunities in the NWT. We hear a lot of comments being made that we are actually importing people in from Newfoundland to do drywall in the communities and construction of buildings in the NWT. That could be done locally. Has the Minister done a cost-analysis of all contracts in the NWT to see what the benefit to the NWT is and ensuring that those resources and dollars expended on capital projects remain in the NWT?
