Thank you, Mr. Speaker. One of the other areas I think the local industry turns for support, because the diamond division isn't there any longer, is to Members of this House, Mr. Speaker. I know some of my colleagues have brought this up, as well, about the situation where one of our local cut and polish factories can buy diamonds cheaper in Antwerp than they can here in Yellowknife. Mr. Speaker, I'd like to ask the Minister if he has met with BHP regarding the pricing discrepancies between Antwerp and Yellowknife, and how he will take action to make sure that our cut and polish industry here is being treated fairly. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
