Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Like some of my colleagues, I'm happy to see the new initiative role out for the Tourism Product Diversification and Marketing Program. The one thing I will say, and it's a lack of participation on behalf of the committee that looks at ITI, this is the first that we've seen of the program and I would hope, and I just wanted to get this on record, that as the program develops and it moves forward, that committee is involved in the rollout of this program because really this is the first time we've seen it. It makes it difficult for members on the Governance and Economic Development committee to go to committee when we look at a supp and other Members ask us about this new initiative and we know nothing about it, really. So I just wanted to mention that for the record, Mr. Chairman. Again, I think it's a move in the right direction.

The one question I would have in that, is it enough money? I think once we let the horse out of the barn so to speak, is this going to be enough money to help our tourism industry? I know sport fishing lodges have taken a tremendous downturn recently and we're looking at some lower numbers in aurora tourism; we're looking at lower numbers on the consumptive side of caribou. So is this going to be enough money, Mr. Chairman?
