Already, see? And rightfully so, I suppose.
Then I hear of a project called the Talston hydro project. Who is that going to benefit? The people of Ulukhaktok, the people of Inuvik? No, it’s not. That’s something that I wouldn’t be able to support. I’ll support anything that has a positive impact on most of the people that we represent. The people up in the northern part of the Northwest Territories seem to be paying the highest rates of anything that
goes on. We have to try and be in this forum and do what’s fair for the people across the Northwest Territories, because that’s what they expect us to do. The power rates went up in Inuvik, and I heard it from everybody. I heard it from citizens; I heard it from businesses. It just affects everything.
I have a list here of the diesel communities. There are 19 of them. I don’t see Inuvik on the list, so I am going to support this motion. Thank you.
