Mr. Chairman, I beg to differ on that issue here. The Sahtu does need a ferry, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman...(inaudible)...during the summer because of the way things are set up. I think the department needs to re-examine the need to have a ferry service in our region that can provide other benefits, cheaper groceries. Everything is being flown in. It's an isolated community. Nobody travels by road. We have to put our trucks on NTCL barges on their schedule, or Cooper Barging. That should be something that should be looked at. I would ask the Minister if he would give it some consideration and he may come back with the same answer next year.
