Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Really this is a global challenge and we believe that the Northwest Territories can be part of a continental energy solution for North America. The Mackenzie Valley gas project, the Mackenzie Valley pipeline use of natural gas as opposed to more carbon intense fuels I think is a step in the right direction. We need to supplant use in North America of oil and coal with natural gas wherever possible, with hydro. So if we can bring some natural gas on stream and bring that into the market in North America, we're certainly lowering, we believe, the emissions account, if you will, for North America. Thank you.
