Mr. Speaker, the Member knows the answer to the second question. He knows that 3,000 jobs will be made available for northerners. I think he probably also knows that fewer than 2,000 people in the Northwest Territories are currently unemployed. Mr. Speaker, it is important to keep perspective. This project is so massive, anybody in the Northwest Territories who is prepared to build the capacity and take the training required is going to get work on this project, Mr. Speaker. That was the aim of this government; to ensure that, in fact, would be the case. Thank you.
