Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I think I actually was on the right page, although we're probably not officially describing it in this way. I think the Minister is right that he doesn't have specific authority, but I guess I'm seeking further certainty on this because the Minister does provide block funding to these municipalities, specifically the City of Yellowknife. Who would the Minister direct the City of Yellowknife to respond to these incidents outside of the municipal boundary because, at this time, the city is in a position where they're funded directly from Municipal and Community Affairs, however, the City of Yellowknife is responding again outside the municipal boundaries. Who would the Minister suggest would be in control of that authority to direct the City of Yellowknife to respond to an emergency? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
