Let me speak specifically to the fibre optic line. The intent of the joint venture is to have a major piece of telecommunications technology and infrastructure owned and operated by Northerners, Aboriginal government and the territorial government. One of our collective goals is to, while we have a decent return on investment, we want to make it modest enough that we can keep the cost of the service into the communities as reasonable and as modest as possible to make it as affordable as possible to build the customer base. That’s going to be our goal.
The final mile piece in the communities, how that new technology will be put to use in communities, that’s where the economic opportunity lies for the private sector, as well, NorthwesTel, Ice Wireless. There are a whole host of options out there in terms of who will own and operate the systems and services within the various communities where you’ll have the cell phone service and the high-speed Internet, the cable, and all the other economic opportunities.
The government in all the communities will be a customer of whoever has that opportunity. It will give us cutting-edge technology that will allow us to use our telehealth properly. It will allow the children’s schools to have access to high-speed Internet and do all the kind of work nowadays that students can do in the rest of the world. We’re going to be very careful to make sure that this is owned and operated in the North and that we make it affordable for all Northerners and we build a substantial information-based technology and industry in Inuvik tied to remote sensing. Thank you.
