Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Our government has been involved, as I mentioned, through the Arctic Energy Alliance. We've been able to lever some federal money toward community energy plans. The one in Wha Ti comes to mind. I think there's a real potential for other communities in the valley on the pipeline route to take advantage of that location. I'm confident that we'll see through discussions that are being led now by the Power Corporation and their partnerships, some hydro initiatives come to fruition. I think that that will provide legacy infrastructure to those communities up and down the valley. We need to both from a pure economic perspective get communities off diesel, but also from an environmental perspective we can do a lot for our communities if we can give them long-lasting hydroelectric power. Thank you.
