Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am glad to see the Member advocating for, even though he said he is not, lower prices for alcohol in the Northwest Territories, knowing the effect that alcohol has on the people of the Northwest Territories. Terminating the contract with the liquor warehouse did result in lower costs to consumer at the liquor stores and, as an unintended consequence of levelling the cost structure for liquor stores and licensees, there was a significant increase to licensees in Yellowknife. We missed that, and as Minister, I take responsibility for that.
It has been addressed. The Member is well aware of how it has been addressed, because we communicated that to him, through a discount program, and that discount program is throughout the Northwest Territories, not just Yellowknife. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
