Mr. Speaker, all I can say is it's about time. Energy and fuel has been costing a lot of money for a long time now and we've had that excess power at the Taltson dam for a very long time. We talk about consistency and continuity of availability of that. I mean, we're talking about expanding the Taltson, for heaven's sake. So I mean, it's a waste. I'm sorry it's taking so long. I'm glad something's being done. Would the Minister also commit to looking at public buildings in Hay River as well for conversion or a dual system that would be partly hydro and perhaps have a backup system of some other form of energy? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
