My recollection is way back in 1970 when the Arctic Winter Games were first introduced it was with Commissioner Hodgson, the Governor of Alaska and the Premier of Yukon who originated these games. In terms of your other question on the international committee, the international committee is a separate corporation that was set up so that it's an arms-length away from all governments. We wanted them to undertake these games so that it's all fairly done in all regions in the three, when it was initially started, Alaska, Yukon and Northwest Territories. Now, in that each jurisdiction appoints two members to the international committee, in our case, today, the government appoints one for the Government of the Northwest Territories and we also have one from the private sector. Thank you.
