Mr. Speaker, I agree with Mrs. Groenewegen that this is of paramount importance. I can assure you that it is the number one thing that I wake up thinking about in the morning and that I go to bed thinking about when I go to sleep. It is very critical for us that we have the pipeline. First of all, we have got to have the Mackenzie Valley pipeline. If we diddle around and the Alaska pipeline goes first, we will all have nothing in terms of resource revenue from that.

So we need to negotiate with the federal government an arrangement that doesn't see the roughly $23.7 billion of government revenues all flow or largely flow to the federal government and the other provinces who supply material. Mr. Speaker, out of every dollar that is spent or that is received in government revenue, in a study that was done for us by Wright Mansell consultants in this business, shows that we get roughly four cents on the dollar right now to keep in the North. That is not a fair deal and, Mr. Speaker, I can tell you that this is the most important thing on my agenda. While I have lots of other things to do, I will continue to see that this one receives priority. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
