Mr. Speaker, from the time a mineral deposit is discovered and potentially a mine is developed or there is some more potential there, it can take upwards of a decade. I think it is important that, as a government, we send the message that we are open for business. We want to get prospectors out on the land. The Minister didn’t answer the question. What will replace the program or how is the government getting that message out there that we are interested in prospectors getting out and finding some other mineral deposits here in the Northwest Territories, Mr. Speaker? Thank you.
