Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, again, we are developing an energy plan for the different communities. We're looking at the possibility of the energy used, regardless if it's from diesel heat or electric heat. We do also have to keep in mind there's a cost to changing the infrastructure that we do have in place by way of a single electrical grid going into a lot of these communities versus a heavier grid which goes to a lot of the larger centres. Also, we're realizing we're having more usage of power in communities by community expansion. So we have to build that into our capital planning process. So we have to work together, find ways to also look at saving energy, but also keep in mind that we will have to put a major investment in upgrading our grid systems into all our communities. Thank you.
