Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I'll go back to my Member's statement from earlier to get my questions for the Minister responsible for the Northwest Territories Power Corporation. I want to start off by saying I do believe the government has a responsibility to the people it represents to get the best possible rates in our communities and, Mr. Speaker, that's not evident today. I spoke earlier of two examples: Trout Lake and Nahanni, 20, 25 percent difference in the rates there; one serviced by Northland Utilities, the other by the NTPC. In the Dogrib region, in Monfwi, the community of Wekweeti serviced by Northland Utilities, Whati is serviced by the Northwest Territories Power Corporation; 25 percent difference. Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister responsible for the Power Corporation how it is possible, or if he can explain how it is possible, that comparable communities in the Northwest Territories have that great of an extent of a difference in power rates. Mahsi.
