Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I think ultimately we’re agreeing with both Mr. Bromley and Mr. Yakeleya. We would obviously like to see and utilize this technology up there but currently there isn’t a distributor. I’m only purely talking about distributing. We have had conversations just last week with the SSI and they did express an interest in starting to have more conversations about this and creating opportunities for the utilization of things like pellets in the Sahtu. We’re absolutely open to that discussion and we’d like to be part of that discussion and solution, but we have to have those conversations before we can commit to doing anything specific. Ultimately whatever we do has to be cost effective and in the best interest of the pocketbook of the Northwest Territories so that we can continue to provide all the
programs and services that we do provide as a government.
In short, yes, we’re interested in this. This is something that we’d like to work with the Sahtu on. Find a way to utilize this technology in that region. A lot of discussions need to be had and we’re ready to have them.
