Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Again, I just wanted to stress that this pilot project is really something very important that Public Works and Services get under way with. I think it's way overdue. There has been reports coming out on the use of interruptible power through the hydro grid system, through all these South Slave communities. If Public Works and Services was presented with some options with reviews on how they could use this interruptible power, whether it be from 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. or doing the switchover to electric power, there was quite a few recommendations on how they could use this interruptible power which equates to about 10 megawatts that we haven't been using for the last 20 years. We are finally coming to terms with it only after the energy crisis going through the ceiling. It seems to be a reaction instead of a pro-action on the part of the government when reports come out on initiatives that we should have undertaken a long time ago when the reports were actually drafted instead of waiting for costs to skyrocket before we can actually realize savings in the long term.
I would just like to ask the Minister if he has compiled any information with respect to what government buildings are being converted over, what potential ones could be converted over in the next couple of years, not just in Smith but the whole South Slave region. Is there any cost associated in today's dollars of what those costs are going to be? Over the long term, I would go 10 years after the hydro is expanded, if it is. Has there been any research into the savings that the NWT residents would save in public dollars with respect to switching over? Thank you.
