Thank you, Mr. Chair. We can't give a targeted number. It is based on a lot of things; how many employers do we have in the Northwest Territories, how many bands would like to partnership on either small community projects and how many would be willing to take on that wage subsidy, making sure that we have residents out there who are capable, ready, and willing to work as well. We can't really throw out a number. If anything, it would be nice to match the numbers that we had last time. With the new investment, hopefully we will have more communities that want to uptake this project and this program moving forward so that we can get the residents working. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
