Mr. Speaker, we certainly agree with the Member and think that the Olympics are a great opportunity for us coming up in Vancouver. We're using the upcoming Canada Games in Whitehorse, if you will, as a bit of a dry run. We are making an investment in terms of promoting the North, working with the other three territories. The Premier's had some discussions with the other territorial Premiers and it was agreed that we would promote the North together at that event. Further, I guess, to Member Braden's statement earlier, we think there is a real opportunity for the promotion of our culture and our arts and crafts. So we'll use that Whitehorse venue first and hope to parlay that into a bigger presence at the Vancouver Olympics. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
