Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we will attempt to look at other facilities again. Mr. Speaker, I'd just like to point out that we do have roughly about eight megawatts of surplus power, but we have to ensure that the grid systems in those communities can take that extra load. A good example is in Hay River, we were looking at the possibility of a pipe coating plant. Again, in order for that to work, we had to upgrade the whole grid system in the community because the system that we have now does not have the capacity to take on that extra load. Thank you.
