Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as we all know, every community is based on a postage stamp power rate which is based on the cost to produce that power in that community, what infrastructure has been put in that community, have there been upgrades, has the Power Corporation made a capital investment by a new power plant or put in a new piece of equipment. All that is assessed when they go through the PUB process. So the actual cost to operate the Power Corporation by community is given to the Public Utilities Board and they make the decision on exactly how much that pot cost to produce the power in that community and what can the customer pay for. So at the end of the day, it's the PUB that makes the final decision on what costs are based in each community in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
