Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I apologize to the Premier for putting him in a position like that. Mr. Speaker, the heating fuel in Colville Lake is $1.23, and the heating fuel in Deline is $1.07. Colville gasoline is $1.50, and in Deline its $1.29. So people have to think twice about even going out for a caribou hunt in the wintertime, and that's a real crying shame. I wanted to ask the Premier about this public awareness. I not sure how much effect that will have on these people that already know the prices; they already know the price it's going to cost them to live here. I wanted to ask the Premier if maybe we should look at territorial legislation, rather than wait for legislation regarding the use of energy in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
