Thank you, Mr. Speaker. At this point, we are largely looking at it from the perspective of reduced costs. One of the principles in our energy plan is to try to provide affordable power to all of our communities. We think natural gas to communities can help us do this in several communities, so that has been the driver behind this. But, yes, of course, we would like to see every single community in the Northwest Territories not have to rely on diesel in future and there are a number of options for that depending on the community and where they are located. Gas to communities will have that effect, we believe. Thank you.
