Thank you, Madam Chair. I heard the Premier across the way mention let them bid on it. To the Premier, put the BIP in there so they can compete. These manufacturers in the Northwest Territories don't have the deep pockets that some of these guys from southern Canada, Alberta and British Columbia that will bid on this tender do. They don't. By waiving the BIP on this, we are cutting them out of the whole process. Put the BIP in, and they will bid on it. Thank you.
