Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As a government, we are always looking at ways to reduce the cost of living in the Northwest Territories. We’ve taken a number of initiatives over the years. We realize and recognize that the best way to reduce the cost of living is to have improved infrastructure in the Northwest Territories. We’ve also looked at the northern resident income tax credit deduction. We’ve looked at that very closely. We’ve talked to our territorial counterparts to see if we could move in that direction. I think one of the best ways would be to look at our use of energy and to find ways to reduce those costs as well. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
