Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Ten thousand pounds of wood pellets, Mr. Speaker. That is quite something. I don't know...

I was just looking at the Fuel Subsidy Program, and I'm sorry, Mr. Speaker, but I didn't see wood pellets included in there, and I got some inquiries from seniors who are on wood pellets. Let me just ask the Minister, the income threshold that is included in the Fuel Subsidy Program is approximately $40,000 as the means threshold for that. As far as I am concerned, I think that any senior that is here, that is residing in the NWT, is entitled to some subsidy, regardless of their income level or whether they are still working or not. That is a good thing, if they are still seniors and still employed and making over $40,000 to $50,000 per year.
Is the department willing to entertain the idea that the mean income threshold should either go up with the rising costs of living in the NWT, or should it be adjusted to reflect the rising costs of living here in the North? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
