Mr. Speaker, I understand the need for some of this work to be done in a shop that is certified in fabrication. However, it sounds to me like there is onsite welding that is taking place too. So if there is one welder in Inuvik that is not working and people are bringing...And I’ve heard it’s in the neighbourhood of 25 welders have been brought in from Whitehorse to actually work onsite. Just because the fabrication takes place in Whitehorse does that mean that it follows that the people welding onsite would also have to come from the same company where the fabrication takes place? Because it would be disappointing to me if there are welders out of work in Inuvik and people are being brought in from Whitehorse to work onsite, and I understand that is the case. Thank you.
