I thank the Premier again for that. In some dialogue with federal Ministers in press clippings and whatnot they talk about the development of this Northern Development Agency and bringing in other aspects to northern development under one roof and all in one. In my Member’s statement I talked about this is quite specific, but 29 positions in Gatineau, Quebec, related to oil and gas in northern Canada. Those positions are located in Quebec and I’m wondering what type of discussions our government is having with the federal government to address other jobs as they relate to northern Canada. These bureaucrats in Gatineau have never set foot in northern Canada. They belong here. I’d like to ask the Premier that question.
