Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I emphasize Yellowknife businesses were missing out on opportunities that they felt that they didn't even get to see the bid on. These are the same businesses that are filing taxes here, so that should make our Finance Minister happy, but they are also being asked to donate to the community. If I can point out sole sourcing on a tabled document here on May 31, 2005, for Health and Social Services, it is a sole source directly that was $18.5 million out of their total contracting budget area which was $20 million, so that represents 92 percent of contracts went sole sourcing. What is the Minister going to do to make sure we correct this and have it measurable, deliverable, so I can go out to the Yellowknife Centre businesses and say to them that this government is doing something about this problem? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
