Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I certainly apologize to the Member; I'm not aware of the specific report that the Member is speaking to. But let me say generally that we recognize that despite the fact that we consider this development boom to be a blessing and would much rather have employment than unemployment, we recognize that there are going to be challenges for communities with this level of employment. There will be, Mr. Speaker, and we can't deny it. There will be social impacts that need to be mitigated. It's important that communities are able to come to the table in the EIS process and make presentations, probably most specifically to the JRP environmental assessment. I think that's the most appropriate vehicle as compared to the NEB, but able to articulate their concerns and make credible presentations. They need resources, Mr. Speaker, in order to be able to do that.

We continue to make the point to the federal government that they will reap the lion's share of revenues from this development. They should be helping communities get to the table to intervene. However, as I've said, social envelope Ministers met this morning with our deputies to discuss a GNWT approach to bringing the federal government to the table on this issue. We want to lay out a strategy and a framework and invite the federal government to plug in and participate and fund part of that approach, because we think it's that important. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
