Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, the Member's right. The Mackenzie Valley pipeline isn't the only show in the Territories. There's mining opportunities and so on. The bridge, as the Member has mentioned, is one other. Mr. Speaker, those are all possibilities and they're still being considered with the manufacturer of these convertible houses. The requirement, though, will be that we have an affordable package, and there are still some design issues. We have some requirements for double walls and double floors and so on that the manufacturer has to take into consideration. In the end this has to be a good quality house; it has to be affordable; it has to be a good deal before we'll consider it. But if there are new mining operations where there are camps, required workforce camps, then, yes, I'm still interested as long as we get a good, affordable, economical housing package out of it. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
