Mr. Chairman, thank you. Basically we have a couple of contracts. This is what we spent money on in the past, but not necessarily exactly with the same companies. But it's seen that within the devolution work, it's necessary for us to have an overall communications strategy on our overall approach to how we're getting out the message that the Northwest Territories should be the controller of its own resources, and that there's value to not just the Northwest Territories but value to the rest of Canada in our resource revenue and doing a devolution deal. In order to promote that approach, we need to promote it more than just in the Northwest Territories. Well, this strategy would include a Northwest Territories strategy, and also one that is on the national stage and that can be heard by the other provinces, the other Premiers, and the other First Ministers. So we have contracted with a couple of companies to help us develop an overall strategy for providing communication on a national stage about the values of devolution and resource revenue sharing in the Northwest Territories. I think a lot of that has been seen throughout the press over the last year.
