We haven’t directly been contacted by the federal government. As you know, the announcement was made just recently. I believe there are some discussions happening. We are looking forward to that particular discussion, because it does highlight Arctic research. We’re not sure exactly where the federal government is targeting — whether it will be in the Nunavut area or in the Northwest Territories. But we are certainly interested in pursuing that once the message is relayed down through our Northwest Territories department. Then we can certainly work with that. We’ll work with the committee members on proceeding with that.
