Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I couldn't disagree with the Minister's statement that we have to get them here. I am just wondering what we are doing to get them here. We could group the NWT as a whole and get people to Smith or Hay River. I can just imagine the Japanese tourists would be ecstatic to be in Nahanni Butte or Colville Lake. I couldn't imagine anything more beautiful. Let's just put the NWT as a group, but how do we distinguish the characteristics of the NWT versus northern Alberta, northern Saskatchewan, Newfoundland, northern Ontario? There are many parts of the country where aurora can be seen and the challenge is to leave that impression on the minds of hundreds and thousands of visitors who are going to go through the pavilion for them to remember that if they want to go to Canada, not only Canada but the Northwest Territories, to see aurora and not Fort McMurray or somewhere in northern Saskatchewan. I tell you, when you are sitting in that part of the world, that's a pretty fine distinction that takes a lot of effort to make into reality and make it more visible. Thank you.
