Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to ask the Premier this question and I have asked questions previously with regard to using some of the resource revenue monies to establish a permanent trust fund in the Northwest Territories so future generations can get a dividend off our vast resource riches we have here in our territory. The State of Alaska has one. Each and every year, $900 to $2,200 is paid to each and every person that lives in Alaska. Has the Premier asked the federal government why we can't look at establishment of a permanent trust fund here in the Northwest Territories? Thank you.
