Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We are working with communities. We've held some initial workshops, in anticipation of the pipeline moving forward, to look at what are some of the concerns and recommendations. There was an agreement reached with the previous federal government for $500 million that would flow to the aboriginal governments and communities up and down the valley in the affected areas to help offset social impacts that could come, and it's through that process that we were anticipating dealing with the issues of social impact, and the monitoring, and being able to respond to what pressure may come to bear as a result of the pipeline going ahead. Thank you.
