Thank you, Mr. Chair. Again, this is another program that we believe is important to diversifying our economy in the Northwest Territories. Last year, over $2 million in direct revenues was realized through the traditional economy. Over $1 million was paid to NWT trappers last year in revenues and advances and grubstakes under the Mackenzie Valley Fur Program. Over $200,000 was paid out to traditional artists last year, generating an estimated $900,000 in product sales. So we believe it is a great program, and we will continue to support that. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

The other thing that is under commercial fishing is there is interest in my riding, as I mentioned last time, I know they will be working very shortly on some sort of commercial fishing plant, possibly in Tsiigehtchic, where we do have the best whitefish in the territory. Seriously, they are making plans to do this, and I know the department was willing to work with them, so I am looking forward to that. I can't wait to see that in my riding for sure. Thanks.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Actually, the last time I was home, the superintendent told me about Tsiigehtchic getting hold of them and wanted to know a little bit about doing a commercial fishery in Tsiigehtchic. I think he has actually said that he would probably go up there and have a discussion with them on how they can move that initiative forward. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
