Thank you, Mr. Chair. I guess I just have to express my dismay at the amount of money that we’re spending on the Territorial Power Subsidy Program. I know our power rates are high, but it’s a huge amount of money that we’re giving away. This supp is for $1.2 million and when I look at the reserve that was allocated to FMB, another $225,000 went into the Territorial Power Subsidy Program. So it’s like $1.5 million over and above what we budgeted that’s going in there. So I don’t really have a question. Again, I think this is more a comment against this particular program, which we have to change somehow, somewhere. I don’t have a solution, unfortunately. So thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Any comments, Minister Miltenberger?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I think there’s a fundamental agreement that subsidies in the long term are not sustainable and not the goal of any operation like ours. But the reality is until we can make the cost of power affordable in the communities, we’ve embarked on the Territorial Power Support Program and in fact we also have $9 million in for a commercial subsidy to try to lower the cost of power and hopefully the food basket in communities. It is a cost, but for all of us that are on hydro, it’s something that we take for granted. The other thing that people on hydro never have to worry about is they never have to worry about 700 kilowatts, but all the other people in the small communities do. So this is an issue we have to be very careful of. We’ve made a commitment as a Territory and a government of the value of the regions and communities, and this is one of the costs that goes with it. But this is why we put $60 million into alternative energy to try to bring some of those costs under control. Thank you.

No, that’s all. Thank you, Mr. Chair, and I agree with the Minister.
