Mr. Speaker, the Member talked about old, erroneous numbers. The numbers are tested quite thoroughly with the volumes of information that have to be provided to the Public Utilities Board about the operation of the Power Corporation and why it’s seeking any changes to its rates. That is something that is there. Those numbers are proven. Our question and further justification if required is given. That is a fairly substantial process with the volumes of information that have to be given at any application to the PUB around rate structures and changes to rates.

The bigger piece…. Again, I say that the government overall provides the Territorial Power Support Program, which minimizes the impact on individuals outside of Yellowknife who pay a higher rate than Yellowknife. That’s, I guess, the area that we would have to look at if we want to minimize further impact across the North.

As well, as I’ve already mentioned to a number of other Members — now that we are going through this process of looking at energy development, generation, regulation — that here’s the opportunity with which this House can give clear direction on how we proceed and how we change things going forward. Because I agree: we can’t continue doing business the same old way.
