Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I think we already do a fair bit in this area of trying to ensure northerners have the opportunity to apply on the jobs and provide that they do have equivalencies, and we've made that allocation through years of trying to ensure northerners are able to take on the jobs that the government does have. So we do have and have implemented many things to try to encourage northerners to put their names forward and we will look at continuing to evolve in this area to ensure we are doing what we can. Ultimately, Mr. Speaker, what we need to have are qualified people doing the right job. If we don't have that, we will continue to run into other problem areas of not getting the job done right and causing more problems. Thank you.
