Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In 1996, the Ontario Building Code introduced legislation requiring six-litre toilets for all new homes. Currently, no other province or territory has developed innovative legislation, but some municipalities like Vancouver have implemented six-litre toilet bylaws to react to changes in our climate and environment. Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister of ENR, if we are really serious about conserving energy, what is stopping us from enacting legislation to put some teeth behind our energy conservation activities such as low-flow toilets, plastic bag restrictions, non-recyclable bottle restriction, maybe even some efficiency light bulb legislation here in the NWT? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
