Thank you, Mr. Speaker. If the GNWT was at the table to talk about this $500 million to corridor communities to mitigate socio-economic impacts of the pipeline which they were successful in negotiating and this provides a nice cushion of comfort for these corridor communities, I don't dispute the fact that they are going to need it when the pipeline goes through. What do the non-corridor communities have that either this government can present to the federal government...I am sure we all negotiated as one unit to get this $500 million, but unfortunately Akaitcho and Tlicho were excluded. What do they have? If these corridor communities have $500 million, what do we have?
