Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Again, when we start getting phone calls from people that basically are trying to acquire work on these jobsites and being told, sorry, you have to phone up a company out of Whitehorse to acquire work in the Northwest Territories, I believe there is something wrong with the system where a Yukon company can manage a project in the Northwest Territories and this government doesn’t seem to do anything about it. I would like to ask the Minister again: Will you ensure that those companies which are listed in regards to the subcontractors on this project, this site, and see exactly how much benefit are they receiving regardless if it is the first phase of the project or the last phase? I think we learned from the Deh Cho Bridge. We will put the pillars in and then we will design it later. It does not work in regards to a $100 million scope.
