For the benefit of the Member, the discussions with regards to Taltson Dam have been going on for at least three or four Assemblies and certainly there has been discussions about expanding the Taltson Dam in partnership with Aboriginal Governments and we went to bring the power to the diamond mines and the diamond mines would buy the power and it went as far as going for environmental assessment and part of the recommendations was to work more closely with the Akaitcho Government with regards to crossing some portions of land that was being negotiated and that has been stalled from there on and there's certainly significant interest by the NWT Metis Nation to see additional work undertaken in that area.
