Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. My questions today are for the Minister responsible for the NWT Power Corporation. Just in the wake of the last briefing that we had with the Power Corporation and their reorganization that they're planning to go forward with, I just wanted to talk about this old issue of the executive compensation and at-risk plan for the executives that received bonuses in the last year. I'm sure there have been bonuses in previous years before that, but it's just come to light because of the amounts that have been dished out in 2005 which equated to a little over half a million dollars, with 12 employees receiving approximately $26,000 of that portion. My first question to the Minister is, with the executive compensation and at-risk plan that they have for the 40-plus executives at the Power Corporation who all work in offices, mind you, Mr. Speaker, what risks are they up against? I know front-line workers, linemen and all that face risks every day, but what risks do these guys incur or are faced with every day that allows them to receive the compensation packages, Mr. Speaker? Thank you.
