Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Just with respect to that fund, it's a $30 million fund available through the GNWT; $90 million for the three territories. However, in the two years that it was utilized for our territory, there was just over $2 million expended. There was $150,000 on five separate projects in total, and, as well, $2 million invested in geoscience. It's strange that they imported $2 million in stimulating an already-growing sector. It's not that sector that needs the help in the North there, Mr. Speaker. So I'd like to know, does the Premier and does this government have a strategy in order to tap into this fund that's there? I know that we created a beautiful package called Corridors for Canada II. Do we have a similar vehicle for the federal government, Mr. Speaker? Mahsi.
