Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would also like to ask questions to the Minister of Human Resources with regards to the tendering of the contract on the EAP program to a southern company. Mr. Speaker, in answering questions to the Member of Great Slave, the Minister just told that his staff has advised that the fact that the winning bid used the principal operator of the competing contract which now has been replaced by this new contract, the fact that that name was used as one of the subcontractors and that the new contractor has apologized for including that name into that proposal, the Minister is saying that is not a problem. To me, that is a real big problem. There is something very wrong with somebody outbidding an existing contract by using that same person. It is like McDonald's bidding for a fast food contract saying Wendy's is going to do the burgers. Mr. Speaker, could I ask the Minister to answer how it is that he doesn't see a problem with that? Thank you.
