Thank you, Mr. Chair. I agree with the Minister. It's not widespread. I just know that I have seen some of it happen, and it is a concern for me if those contractors are able to bid on future stuff. The Minister talked about consequences to the department not getting jobs done. I guess I agree with you, but I have a concern with that. That is the employment going to that community, and so, when we are talking about consequences, is there some way that we can work with the community to be able to move forward? Because I sit there and I see the consequences, and I see these numbers, and I wonder why we are not being able to complete things. Again, the consequences are, say a trail in Fort Simpson, if that is what the territorial government is doing on the parks, it does not get done, and we take that money away, that trail does not get done. That means there is employment and enhancements there. How are we going to be able to ensure the consequences are fitting moving forward? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
