Mr. Speaker, we’ve
worked
with
communities
with
business
development
officers,
economic
development
officers, to identify opportunities for folks to get into business. We have our SEED program, a loan program, as well as we have the BDIC for folks who are
interested
in
getting
some
of
these
opportunities that a new biomass facility is going to bring to the Northwest Territories.
In the Member’s riding and in the South Slave, these jobs are desperately needed. We understand that. That’s why government fully supports the development of that wood pellet facility in the South Slave. Thank you.
