I think it’s more than having the Member buy a fishing boat, but we are looking at different ways. Certainly one of the themes that we’ve been talking about is to not only buy locally, but produce locally, and certainly we’ll be coming forward with some proposals that will allow us to go forward with using Great Slave fish much more in the Northwest Territories. So that’s one option and certainly other jurisdictions like Saskatchewan, for example, has opted out of the Freshwater Fish Marketing Corporation model. So we are looking at all of those things and perhaps at the end of the day we may have to try to pursue all of those different avenues. I think the most important thing right now, though, is to find a way to increase the production of fish from Great Slave Lake. Thank you.
