Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the whole idea of this concept is to ensure we get maximum benefit in communities where the site development work will have to take place. We are also looking at ensuring land development will be done and the conversion of these units, which will be done in the community. They won't be done outside the communities, so those dollars will remain in the communities. Also, that way, we will be able to provide training to individuals after the pipeline is over. So we are looking at three or four years of employment after the pipeline is concluded. Out of that, $180 million of this project will stay in the North, go into our communities, and benefit the people of the Northwest Territories.
