Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we certainly want to make sure that we can take advantage of the opportunities that may present themselves with the development of a pipeline in the Mackenzie Valley. So there have been ongoing courses for a number of years now that this government has offered to residents to make sure that we are starting the process for them to be ready. On top of that, this government has worked with the college. The college has worked with stakeholders in the oil and gas field, as well as aboriginal governments along the Mackenzie to develop a proposal to the federal government for a training program, and we're confident that we will see significant monies flowing for that program, which will make sure that we have training that is extremely well targeted to make sure that residents in the region can be ready for pipeline activity. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
