Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, again, for my people back home in the Sahtu region, in terms of the benefits that our impact agreements in terms of the GNWT, what type of support and tools have been given to outside the region that these diamond mines that have an impact? I really don't see the number of people from my region at those diamond mines that it should be, and outside of the Sahtu communities further north. Do we have anything, as a region, that says these are our diamonds? We also want to be beneficiaries to these diamonds in terms of employment, business. What are the numbers here for us for, the Sahtu, Gwich'in, or Beaufort-Delta? I would like to ask the Premier. Are we somehow involved in this in terms of opening up this agreement here? Thank you.
